This super simple creamy pumpkin sauce is a quick, warm, and comforting weeknight dinner. 

​
INGREDIENTS
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1 Tbsp butter/vegan butter
  • 2 15 oz. cans 100% pure pumpkin puree 
  • 1 13.5 oz. canned coconut milk
  • 16 oz. fettuccine pasta 
  • Holy Mo'ly and Ole Cajun for seasoning

INSTRUCTIONS
  • Begin boiling a large pot of water for your pasta. Once the water is boiling, add the pasta and boil until al dente (7-10 minutes). Drain in a colander.
  • While waiting for the water to boil, prepare the sauce. Mince two cloves of garlic and add them to a large skillet with one tablespoon of butter. Sauté over medium-low heat for 1-2 minutes, or just until the garlic is soft and fragrant.
  • Add the pumpkin purée and coconut milk to the skillet and stir to combine. Add the Holy Mo'ly and Ole Cajun to taste. Stir in the spices and let the sauce simmer over medium-low heat while the pasta cooks (about 5 minutes), stirring occasionally.
  • Combine the pasta and pumpkin sauce. (Taste and add additional seasoning if needed).

              *Can be served with cooked chicken, shrimp or sprinkled with Parmesan cheese

Ingredients

1 block tofu (firm or extra firm, pressed)
1/2 cup Mo' Fish Fry
1/2 cup Flour
1 tsp Baking Powder
Nori Seaweed (sheets)
1 Lemon 
Sparkling Water(plain)
Vegetable Oil



  1. Drain and press the tofu with a paper towel. Try to get most of the water out.
  2. Slice the tofu into medium thick slices
  3. Place Nori Seaweed on tofu and squeeze lemon juice on top and allow to sit for 10 minutes (The seaweed gives the tofu a fishy taste and is like the skin on real fish)​.
  4. In a large bowl add the Mo' Fish Fry, flour, baking powder and sparkling water.
  5. Mix together with a fork or hand whisk. Whisk until you have a thick batter (You want the batter to be thick enough to stick to the tofu. If it's too thin add a little more of equal parts of Mo' Fish Fry and flour and whisk again)
  6. Set aside for 5 min.
  7. Heat oil in deep fryer.
  8. Keeping the Nori sheets on top put the tofu in the batter and cover carefully with a spoon.
  9. Using a spatula gently pick up battered tofu and gently drop into the oil and do the same with the rest of the tofu.
  10. Let it fry for 3 minutes then flip over & cook the other side for a minute or two.
  11. Place the fish on paper towel to absorb the excess oil.
  12. Serve immediately with a slice of lemon, fries and tarter sauce.
