Verna's Tofu Dip

You will find this only at Woodman's, Aisle 23, way down at the end. It is on the top shelf on the left hand side.




You will find this at Festival Foods in the Natural Food aisle in th;e refrigerated cases.






I made this in front of the class this evening. Several people asked that I would put it on my blog. So here it is.




Ingredients:






  • This is the Base.




  • 1 package Mori-Nu Silken Tofu-soft, drained-Do Not substitute any other kind of tofu.
    . Picture on top




  • 1 cup Grapeseed Oil Vegenaise-Picture on above




  • 3 teaspoons fresh lemon juice



Directions:






  1. Mix very well in a food processor. Use a spatula to clean down the sides and continue to process until well mixed. About 30 seconds to a minute.



Add:






  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder



  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder



  • 1 1/4 teaspoon sweet paprika



  • 1 teaspoon Braggs Spinkles -24 Herbs and Spice Seasoning.-from Woodman's in the Natural Food aisle. Picture above.



  • A couple shakes of Mrs Dash, No Sodium , Southwest Chipolte Seasoning



  • Shake or two of Siracha Hot Chili Sauce or to taste



  • 3-4 green onions, chopped fine. Use some of the green part also.



  • Directions:






  1. Add all seasonings to base ingredients, which is in the food processor.




  2. Process until well mixed.




  3. Remove to a bowl.




  4. Add green onions, Mrs Dash Seasoning and Siracha Sauce to taste.




  5. Refrigerate several hours.




  6. Serve with raw veggies.




  7. Also great as a sandwich spread.




This recipe is very versatile. You could make the base and add Taco Seasonings for those taco's on my blog.





Taco Seasonings:







  • I usually triple this and put in a class jar that I marked. Great for lots of future used. 2Tablespoons chili powder




  • 2 teaspoons sweet paprika




  • 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes or to taste




  • 1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano




  • 1/2 teaspoon dried marjoram




  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper




  • 1 Tablespoon garlic powder




  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin



Directions:







  1. Combine all ingredients.




  2. Put in a glass jar with tight fitting lid. Be sure to label and date the container.

Enjoy!!!
