 Tofu with vegetables and rice. As usual, my recalcitrant food calendar threw me a curve.   This Meatless Monday dish showed up on Wednesday.   I guess it was right on time for Whatever Wednesday! Katsu style, extra firm tofu, sticky rice, steamed spinach, house kimchi cabbage, and Thai sweet chili sauce. A delightful combination of textures and flavors.  As always, your comments or questions are welcome. Until next time, Bon Appetit Y'all!

  Amazingly my food calendar synced yesterday, just in time, for meatless Monday.   These days it seems to sync less and less. These kimchi quesadillas fit the bill delightfully.   They had great texture and flavor.   The  Jongga USA brand kimchi added a delightful crunch that contrasted quite nicely against the melted cheese. I sometimes make my own Kimchi.   I find the fermenting process very intriguing.   My cabbage kimchi is spicier than the  Jongga USA brand.   But, it is nice and convenient to have this pre-made product on hand.   It really does have delightful texture and flavor.   Making these quesadillas is simple.   Roughly chop the cabbage kimchi.   Mix it with enough cheese to hold it together.    Finish the assembly and cooking process like you would any other quesadilla. The  Jongga USA brand is one the companies that is under the  Daesang America and and Daesand Korea Daesang Korea parent companies.   They do an outstanding job.   Daesang America was kin
