Tofu Sandwich and Sweet Potato Fries!

      This recipe is great for when you are craving a bistro-type meal.  My mom would make a version of this sandwich for us a lot  when I lived at home (most all of my recipes are inspired by her in some way) and we stole the recipe, or really the "How To" to make the Sriracha Mayo Sauce from a restaurant we dined at in Milwaukee. What is on the plate in the pictures is a tofu sandwich and sweet potato fries with a Sriracha mayo Sauce. For this one, you will need:

• French Bread
• Trader Joe's Teriyaki Tofu
• Lettuce
• Balsamic Glaze
• Mayo
• Pesto
• Sriracha Hot Sauce
• Frozen Bag of Sweet Potato Fries

     First, heat the oven to 425 degrees F, put the sweet potato french fries on a pan on tin foil.  Follow the directions for the fries on the bag, or wait until they start to sizzle and darken.  

     For the sandwich, heat up a sauté pan, cut the tofu in strips and lay them in the pan.  Let them cook for about 3 minutes on each side (I used the leftover tofu from my salad).  Toast the bread, add mayo, pesto, lettuce, and the tofu.  Top with the balsamic glaze.

     For the Sriracha Mayo sauce, put about 2 Tbsp. in a small bowl and add in a squirt of the Sriracha sauce, stir well.  Taste and add Sriracha sauce as desired.  

     Put it all on a plate and you are ready to enjoy the sandwich quality of bistro in the comfort of your home.  I hope you enjoy this recipe! Be sure to leave comments or questions in the comment section and be sure to follow me using the button in the top right corner! :)
