We talked about what went wrong and to me it was an issue of what cooking methods were suggested for the individual elements. So, I created this recipe for my friends and hopefully it will work for them (and you!). Continue reading “Blue Plate Special #61: Baked Mustard Tofu with Sweet Potatoes & Kale”
