Budget Friendly $10 Recipes Episode 3: Tofu Satay Skewers Recipe So I’ve made these and shared them before, but this time I have tweaked the ingredients slightly to make it an extra budget friendly recipe! The swaps I made were switching yogurt for coconut cream and coconut sugar for brown sugar. So you can use those if you have them on hand instead 😁 This easy vegan recipe is perfect for meal prep or for an easy midweek dinner idea. The skewers are so delish but the sauce will blow your mind. Soooo good! Save this easy plant based recipe and send it to someone who loves tofu
