Crispy Tofu Buddha Bowl


How do you get tofu crispy??? Solution- use air fryer!

I don’t eat a lot of tofu, but when I do I make sure to buy organic, non- GMO.
Why? Up to 90% of soybeans are genetically modified to resist the herbicide Round Up.

I prefer extra-firm tofu as it keeps its shape when cooking and just absorbs flavor of sauce.
I’ve been cooking with tofu more during & after Beachbody’s Ultimate Reset when I eliminated animal protein.
