Almond Crusted Tofu with Red Pepper Sauce


Red Pepper Sauce
6 oz. jar roasted red peppers in water, drained
1 red pepper  (slice and saute in gourmet skillet until cooked)
2 garlic cloves
1 bunch of cilantro
1 tablespoon olive oil
sea salt small amount


Cooked Tofu
6-8 oz. tofu  1 package sprouted tofu
1/2 cup raw almonds
 sea salt
 ground black pepper
1-2 tablespoons coconut oil
For the sauce, place all the ingredients in a small food processor and blend until smooth, set aside.
Place the almonds in a food processor and blend until they become a coarse almond meal. Dump out into a shallow bowl and stir in the salt and black pepper.
Cut the the tofu  thin slices. Place a tofu in the almond mixture and coat on all sides, repeat with each slice. Pre Heat a skillet (I use EOS) over medium-high heat. Spray with oil or add a little coconut oil. Once the oil is hot, carefully place the tofu slices into the pan. Cook for 2 minutes or until golden brown without moving, then flip and cook for another 2 minutes. Plate the tofu slices and pour the roasted red pepper sauce over the top, serve immediately.
