This make for a quick meal on Taco Tuesday! You could easily use a firm fish if tofu’s not your thang.

  • Juice & zest of two limes
  • Olive oil spray
  • Salt and pepper
  • 1 block firm tofu, sliced thin
  • Head of butter lettuce
  • Corn tortillas
  • Pickled jalapeño
  • Cilantro, chopped
  • Green onions, sliced thin

In a large dish place slices of tofu, season with chili flakes, zest and salt and pepper. Pour lime juice over tofu and let rest for a few minutes.

Heat a griddle over medium high heat and spray with oil. Cook tofu on both sides until crispy.

Serve with lettuce, tortillas and top with cilantro, green onions and jalapeño.

Roasted Artichokes

20130707-082946.jpg

I love Artichokes!! This is the best recipe I’ve ever made – roasting really brings out the flavor and a little cheese, garlic and red pepper flakes makes it amazing!

Ingredients:
2 large artichoke hearts
6 cloves of garlic
Chili pepper flakes
Lemon, halves
Grated Parmesan cheese
Olive oil

Preheat oven to 400.

Use one piece of foil per choke that is large enough to seal it up. Place artichoke in foil, pull leaves apart and stuff with garlic, chili flakes and cheese- drizzle with olive oil and 1/2 the lemon juice. Wrap tightly and bake for an hour and 30 minutes.

Serves 2.
