yesterday was detention sunday. armed with some vegan crunk recipes, i headed to my other part-time job with a mission: get these recipes tested on my down time after serving the kids their meals. mission accomplished! shown above are battered n' fried tofu slices to make the creation featured below--
now, i've always thought the whole southern chicken and waffle combo was the stuff of legends. people don't actually eat that stuff, do they? in a sammich? get the hell outta here! actually, i remember watching tapeheads with john cusack and tim robbins and there was a commercial for a chicken and waffle place in that movie. what was the name of that place? well anyway, shown above is the chicken-fried tofu wafflewich. it is two special marinated, battered, and fried planks of tofu slapped on a savory waffle with some fixin's and a secret special sauce. it was very good, but too much for this yank. i felt like a snake that had eaten a bowling ball. the lighting was atrocious in the cafeteria so the photos looks awful. my apologies.
ahhh, another money shot of the sammich. this bebeh was at least 5 inches thick. in fact, i had to have my jaw bone surgically removed so i could open my mouth wide enough to eat it. remember the commercial where the catch phrase was, i can't believe i ate the whole thing? i think it was for antacids or something. shortly after eating the sammich, i thought guinness book of world records would call me offering up an award for eating something so monumentally awesome.
Mmm, I've got to try this one.
ReplyDeleteHehe! So you got so stuffed. I usually eat my sammiches with chips or a salad or something, but when I make this, it's all I can eat. And it definitely leaves me pretty full too. When you get a chance, lemme know on my tester blog how the substitution turned out on the tofu...I'm curious.
ReplyDeleteWoah baby! That is freakin' huge. Looks tasty! Nice work :)
ReplyDeleteholy smokes. that thing is out of control!
ReplyDeleteThat looks crazily good!
ReplyDeleteOh man, that looks awesome! The batter looks so tasty! I bet it would be great with some bbq sauce.
