300th Post: Tofu kale baked dumplings – Vegan
About:
This recipe is based on kale baked falafel which I made for wraps earlier (link). Now this time I included tofu and baked it. You can also easily use any vegetables if preferred and swap kale with it.
Health Benefits:
- Kale can provide you with some special cholesterol-lowering benefits if it is steamed. Raw kale still has cholesterol-lowering ability—just not as much.
- Kale’s risk-lowering benefits for cancer have recently been extended to at least five different types of cancer.
- Kale is now recognized as providing comprehensive support for the body’s detoxification system.
This kale tofu balls are great by itself for the snacks and this goes well with pasta. (link)
