About Tofu in peanut sauce
Tofu in Peanut Sauce is a flavorful dish inspired by Southeast Asian cuisine, particularly Thai traditions. This plant-based recipe combines tofu—a protein-rich, versatile soy product—with a creamy peanut sauce made from natural peanut butter, soy sauce, lime juice, garlic, ginger, and a touch of sweetness from honey or maple syrup. Served over rice or alongside fresh vegetables, it offers a balanced combination of protein, healthy fats, and carbohydrates. Tofu provides essential amino acids and is low in saturated fat, making it a heart-healthy option. Peanuts contribute monounsaturated fats and vital nutrients like magnesium, though they are calorie-dense, so portion control is key. The dish may be high in sodium depending on the soy sauce used, so low-sodium versions are recommended for healthier preparation. Perfect for vegetarians and vegans, Tofu in Peanut Sauce is a delicious way to enjoy wholesome ingredients with bold, savory flavors.
