Mine definitely didn't look as appetising as the one in the pictures but it did taste good

Quick and delicious, decent amount of protein

Loved this! Sauce could work on other dishes as well.

Simple, réconfortant et plein de protéines. Parfait quand on est pressé. Comme souvent je n'avais pas tous les ingrédients mais j'ai réajusté avec ce que j'avais et tout s'est très bien passé

Good and hearty.

It was nice but lacked that deep umami that I love.

Used orange juice instead of agave syrup, turned out delicious🥰
It’s a staple now. Thank you

Incredible dish and so easy to make 💕

Absolutely delicious! I tried it today and the whole family loved it. The sauce is super creamy. The chili flakes really take it to the next level, so don't skip them!

Absolutely delicious

Hi, if I wanted to make the sauce with pesto out of a bottle, do I need to add the agave syrup to the pesto and tofu?

Hey Juliet, if you're using bottled pesto, you can skip the agave syrup since the pesto likely has its own balanced flavour. Just blend it with the tofu and adjust for sweetness if needed 🤗
