I'm feeling more and more comfortable just "winging it" in the kitchen. My husband said he would make his own dinner tonight after I told him about what was in my arms that I gathered from the pantry and fridge. He despises most of these ingredients, so I figured he would cook himself eggs tonight. But being the great adventurer that he is, he tried my completed dinner before I sat down. I gave him a bite and he wouldn't give back the plate. He loved it. No worries, I had plenty more to make another wrap for me. Here's what I'm calling tonight's experiment:
A Rustic Wrap
1 tablespoon of canola oil
One diced yellow pepper
One diced sweet onion
1/2 cup of sliced mushrooms (I used "mini-bellas")
2 cups of baby spinach
6 oz. of firm tofu
3 tablespoons (0r more depending on your taste) of Eat Smart's brand: "Garden Style Sweet Salsa"
goat cheese crumbles
sun dried tomato torillas
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. First add onions for about 3 minutes until soft. Then add peppers and mushrooms. Salt and pepper to taste. After they get soft (another 3-4 minutes), add the spinach. It will reduce very quickly to a manageable size. Add tofu and salsa. Continue cooking until vegetables are soft and tofu and salsa are heated to your liking. For me, that was another 3 minutes.
You can toast your torillas, but I didn't. I added 1/3 of the vegetable mix to one tortilla and sprinkled it with goat cheese crumbles. Enjoy!!
Here's a picture of the delicious salsa I found. It is not at all hot. Completely mild and much sweeter than typical salsa:
