Pine Nut Crusted Tofu stuffed with Pesto and Slow Roasted Tomato
Filed in Dinner, Vegan, Vegetarian, 19/04/2010, 09:36I’m particularly proud of this post because this dish was very experimental. Usually experimental attempts go very wrong.

If you can’t get a hold of this spice, maybe try using some liquid smoke.. [...]
