Tofu Reubens
This is a low carb take on a Reuben that I thought turned out really well. This was so good I made it again for lunch the next day.
Recipe adapted from Food Network:
Ingredients:
1 lb package of firm tofu (you can use all or save half for air fried tofu)
1/8 teaspoon ground allspice
1/8 teaspoon mustard powder
whole wheat tortilla per serving
3 slices of swiss cheese per serving
reduced calorie/lowfat Thousand Island or Russian dressing to taste
1 cup sauerkraut rinsed and drained
1/2 cup spinach per serving
Directions:
- Drain tofu liquid. Place tofu in a dish towel and wrap. Place a can on top to help squeeze out excess liquid. Let tofu drain/dry for at least 15 minutes.
- Cut tofu into 1/2 inch slices. Place on a few layers of paper towels and let it drain a little more.
- Sprinkle all spice and ground mustard on slices.
- Air fry tofu at 375 degrees for 15-20 minutes turning halfway through.
- Spray a nonstick pan with with olive oil or butter spray and heat on low heat.
- Lay tortillas out flat. Spread Thousand Island dressing. Arrange slices of swiss cheese on one half. Spread out spinach. Place a 2-3 slices of tofu. Top with sauerkraut. Fold over.
- Cook on low heat for 3-5 minutes per side so cheese will melt.
- Serve with a salad. I added extra sauerkraut to my salad and used Thousand Island dressing.
