recipe for matt and amy

TOFU COUSCOUS TACOS

1 can mexican stewed tomatoes
1 cup water
1/4 cup chopped onion
packet of taco seasoning mix
2/3 cup couscous
8 oz. extra firm tofu, chopped up tiny (or frozen then thawed and crumbled)
corn tortillas
shredded lettuce
cheese
salsa
etc.

In a medium saucepan combine undrained stewed tomatoes, water, onion, and taco seasoning. bring to a boil. stir in couscous and tofu. cover; remove from heat. let stand 5 minutes.

spoon mixture into tortillas and top with the fixings!

we go all out and use sliced avocado, cilantro, chopped green onion, fresh lime juice, sometimes even organic sour cream. delicious.

if i can find rebecca's recipe which is even tastier but does not include the couscous, i will let you know.

Yea well, I'm doing a dance because I am going to make a version of this but will be using a deadly substitution--ground beef(cooked well)--but I have to buy some cilantro, corn tortillas, onions, and whatever else. I think I'll will make them tomorrow after church and some leftovers for work--heaven

Thanks Heather, what an excellent recipe. Joey and Dad--no manly word wars here, beef or tofu notwithstanding.
