Print ThisMaria's Tofu and Pasta Pie
My godmother came up with this inspired vegan main course when we visited her at her home in Florida. Rather than fret about what to make for us, she simply adapted an old family recipe into this delicious dish!
Ingredients
2 1/2 cups whole wheat pastry flour
1 pinch sea salt
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons water
6 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 yellow onion, diced
2 cups pasta
3 red bell pepper, roasted
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 pound tofu, extra firm
6 leaves kale, steam and dice
8 ounces non-dairy vegan mozzarella
1/2 pound plum tomatoes, diced
