Mason Jar Tofu Buffalo Tacos Recipe -- Take your tacos on the go for a perfectly portable vegetarian lunch or dinner!
Hey hey!
We interrupt your regularly scheduled WIAW for the ever most important recipe instead. TACOS!
So put on your sombrero, pass the tequila, and let's get down for a Recipe Redux par-tay this month!
Taco Tuesday
February 21 is a Tuesday. So show us your healthy, creative take on the taco!
Okay, so it may be Wednesday, but is there ever REALLY a bad time for a taco? I think not.
A while back, I shared some buffalo tofu tacos I made for lunch on insta, but never actually got around to making it Facebook recipe official. The taco loving Gods of Recipe Redux answered my prayers!
..They may have been warm weather prayers, but maybe I just need to work on my dance moves. I will gladly take anyone up on a trip to Mexico or really any warm weather location in exchange for tofu tacos and a partner in tequila shot crime.
I LOVE corn tortillas, especially for tacos and fajitas.
...That is until the exact second when I attempt to shovel it into my face, and end up with a lap full of guac and flaming hot fajitas when it proceeds to fall apart. Putting them in a jar not only makes them portable AND anti-crumble protected. Jar life for....well like life.
