Coconut Slaw with Spicy Peanuts
**Try 3 tsp coconut oil and 1 tsp sriracha for
Tofu. Try cooking peanuts for 5 minutes. They burned at 6 minutes. Try 2 tsp coconut oil, 1 tsp sriracha for peanuts. I changed the recipe to double the tofu so 3 may not be enough.** Love & Lemons Simple Feel Good Food, by Jeanine Donofrio, pg 63
