We loved it! I completely agree about how the tofu from the recipe deserves a spotlight of its own. Cooking it in the oil of the sun-dried tomatoes is a brilliant idea. We will be making this dish over and over and have already chosen to make it for our non-vegan family this weekend. Thanks ❤️

Adding to next week's meal prep!

[@NikkiVegan]

Nice! I hope you love it! It's great for meal prep! To reheat the leftovers, add the portion you'd like to a saucepan with some extra plant milk. Heat on medium high heat until warmed through and it will be super creamy again. I typically add a little more salt because the extra plant milk dilutes the flavor slightly. ut just a pinch or two is perfect! Hope you enjoy! 😊😊

It looks delicious! I would like to try it with frozen then thawed tofu. I’m not a fan of the soft tofu texture. Definitely trying this recipe. I don’t have a Trader Joe so I will use what is available to me. Should still turn out taste. Using plant based milk instead of water with the cashew sauce is a great idea, I imagine it makes it next level creamier. Aloha

[@MaryJoHeadrick]

I have an allergy to cashews (and pistachios and mango, funnily enough), but I always see creamy sauces using soaked cashews. I was wondering if you know of another way to get the same consistency in a vegan sauce that doesn't use cashews. I can eat other nuts, but I'm not sure if another nut would replicate the creamy-ness. I love your videos, you make such delicious looking food!

You weren’t wrong about the beautiful colour of the dish 🙌🏻🙌🏻. I don’t drink and I live alone, is there something I could sub out the wine for?? Rice vinegar maybe?

[@NikkiVegan]

Thank you! Don't use vinegar because it sour the dish. Opt for low sodium veggie broth instead 😊 It will taste a little different but it will still be tasty! Hope you enjoy!

[@raajks2489]

Looks yum! ❤️ are there any white wine substitutes you would recommend? Would veg broth or something else work?

[@NikkiVegan]

Yep! Veggie broth is a good alternative but it does change the flavor 😊

[@cherhonda]

[@monkeymintaka]

This looks sooo good! All my favourites in one dish. Would you recommend an alternative to the cashews (my bf is allergic 😬). I was thinking maybe potato?

[@NikkiVegan]

Oooo that could be a good idea! Let me know how it goes! White beans would be another, but both will require a little salt to taste. You could also use tahini but opt for one that is very light and runny for best results....idk exactly how much....maybe 1/4 cup? 🤔

[@monkeymintaka]

@@NikkiVegan thanks! White beans sound good too!

[@Sarah-eb9rz]

Looks sooo delicious! Any recommendations for dry wine?

[@NikkiVegan]

Hey Sarah 😊 Justin Sauv Blanc, Decoy Sauv Blanc, Fournier Sancerre “Les Belles Vignes” and Justin Viognier are options. I have't had this particular Sancerre but they're usually delicious and with nice acidity! I also like the wine I shared in this video! For drinking and for cooking It's organic and vegan friendly.

[@Deekelly22]

Looks so good. I can’t have nuts.. any idea for a substitute for cashews?

[@NikkiVegan]

Hey Kelly! Soaked raw sunflower seeds or un-soaked hemp seeds will work as well! You could also try very light colored, runny tahini instead 😊😊 I haven't tested with these ingredients so I don't know what the exact measurements would be for each substitution but all of these options would make a creamy sauce and only change the flavor slightly...more nutty tasting ironically but still tasty! Hope you enjoy!

Sub chickpeas or vegan chicken instead ☺️
