Grilled Sweet Onion and Butter Sandwich

Caramelized onions, melty Gruyère, and a deeply savory broth deliver the kind of comfort that doesn’t need improving.

The tofu is crunchy on the outside, in part thanks to a panko-studded exterior, and squishy-in-a-good-way on the inside. It also comes together in 20 minutes.

Easy to make, impossible to stop eating.

This side dish is flavorful enough to also serve as a main course.

Put these out at a gathering, and we guarantee you’ll be hearing rave reviews for a long time.

Reliable cabbage is cooked in the punchy sauce and then combined with store-bought baked tofu and roasted cashews for a salad that can also be eaten with rice.

Rather than breaded and fried as you might expect croquettes to be, these are something more akin to a seared chicken salad patty.

Serve these as you would falafel: in a pita, on top of a salad, or as a snack with a dip.
