Hey guys! Well, I was ambitious and gave this recipe a try the other night. I was skeptical at first, but it turns out that it was DELICIOUS! The husband found this Toasted Tofu Sandwich recipe in ESPN's May issue a few weeks ago and asked me to try it out. This is a recipe that I wouldn't normally make. First of all, tofu.
