Fish Sticks
I was craving some fish and chips this weekend. Being somebody who does not eat fish, I needed to find an alternative. Using nori, you get that seafood taste. You also get tons of health benefits from the nori sheets. These are a bit tedious to make, but the end result is worth the time it takes to roll each piece of tofu. Enjoy!
Estimated Cost Per Serving: $.75
Fish Sticks
Ingredients
- 1 block of Extra Firm Tofu. Water pressed and drained out.
- 4 Nori Sheets
- 1 cup of Panko Bread Crumbs
- 1 ½ cups of Flour (any flour is fine)
- 1 cup of Non Dairy Milk.

Instructions
- Pre heat oven to 425f.
- Cut tofu block in half lengthwise, then cut the two pieces in half lengthwise again. Cut the tofu blocks into long skinny strips.

- On a plate, spread out 1 cup of bread crumbs and 1 teaspoon of salt.
- On another plate spread out ½ cup of flour.
- Take nori covered tofu strips and roll on the plate with flour.
- Next dip the tofu strips in the flour and milk mixture.
- Now roll the dipped tofu piece in the bread crumbs and salt.
