cooking for one: tofu adobo

When you live alone, you either eat out all the time or cook for one.   If you choose to cook and are like most girls, your pantry would probably be stuffed with pasta, salads, breads, and cheeses…

But I think one can only have so much pasta and salads!!

I took home non-default items from the supermarket the other day–including baboy adobo cut and cream dory (why are they everywhere now?).  Tonight I wanted something light though, so I took out my most perishable food in the refrigerator –tofu– and made veggie adobo!  For a first try, masarap siya!

I added monggo sprouts and sayote tops because I still wanted something leafy in there,  then put in chili flakes for that perfect bite..yummm!

I also used organic black vinegar, which true enough, may have made the difference:

I think I’m beginning to appreciate Pinoy and Asian flavors more… am I growing old?? hehe
