General Tao's Tofu

I just want to point out this recipe for General Tao's Tofu on vegweb.com.  I've made it a couple of times and we had it again last night.  It is so good!  You gotta try it!

It's gluten free, just make sure to check your soy sauce and veggie broth for gluten.   Instead of veggie broth, I used water and Better Than Bouillon Vegetable Base and I use San-J Tamari Sauce.

Vegetarian Chili


I have a couple of friends who are vegetarian so I do a lot of meat free cooking.  In fact, I was a pescetarian before I found out I was gluten intolerant.  I ate fish and seafood, eggs and dairy but no other animals.  But a lot of the meat analogs that I used to eat contain gluten and I had to give them up.  (Actually, discovering I was gluten intolerant totally explained why I always thought seitan was pure evil!)  Anyway, while I was learning to eat GF, it was kind of tough getting enough protein in my diet so I started eating a little poultry, beef and pork.  I know!  I know!  There are lots of gluten free, meat free people out there, but hey, I'm only a kid!
