Tofu Kebabs are Delicious for Dinner and Are Vegan
Tofu kebabs are a great addition to any meal and so yummy. They are filled with nutritious vegetables and protein-rich tofu. A great vegetarian addition to a barbecue this summer too especially for those wanting a vegan option.

Diana, I have multiple overlapping disorders. The worst, Akathisia & Tardive Dyskinesia brought on by reaction to nerve pain meds and treatments for misdiagnosed bipolar disorder. (The mood changes were side effect of the nerve pain med) I now cannot tolerate ANY meds. That includes many vitamins. I have been completely med free for almost 2 years. I must get all of my nutrition from my food. I have developed a horrific case of adult eczema and have had to go vegan to heal. Please help me learn how to absorb as many vitamins as possible from the plants I eat. There is so much conflicting info. I spend hours researching and end up very confused. (Upside, in the past 2 years,getting off of all meds and eating whole food, sugar free diet, I went from size 4x – 270lbs to size 7 – 130lbs.)
