Recipe: shrimp or tofu creole from Pam.

Pam's Tofu Creole Recipe, Grapevine, TX, US.

This delicious, low-fat, complete meal is quick preparation if you use frozen onions, frozen bell peppers, and garlic powder. You can also prepare on the week-end and reheat in microwave. This dish lends itself well to reheating one serving at a time for nights with staggered family mealtimes.

At one time my family ate this recipe with shrimp. Now we use tofu. It is good without tofu. However, if I don't use tofu, I add 1/3 cup of barley and 1/4 cup bulghur wheat for protein.
