Recipe for Tofu and Vegetable Cutlets
Recently, I have started experimenting with high-protein vegetarian foods. Tofu is one ingredient that can’t be ignored when planning a vegetarian high-protein meal. So, today, I tried out tofu and vegetable cutlets in my kitchen, and they were a super success. So, here is my Tofu and Vegetable Cutlets recipe.
Please note that with this recipe, you can make eight cutlets.
