Meatless Monday
Cooking this vegetarian dish, Pinakbet with Tofu reminds me of my dad's vegetable garden. Dad, an avid gardener, grew all kinds of vegetables in our backyard. My dad came from a poor family, so gardening for my dad's family was not a hobby to enjoy, but a means to put food on the table. Growing up, I had fond memories of the times he would have me pick some vegetables like tomatoes, green beans, and eggplants, and they would be part of a wonderful meal he himself would cook.
