"These are great for breakfast over pancakes, waffles, french toast, crepes, oatmeal, etc. Or serve with low fat ice cream and toasted macadamia nuts for dessert.

The peanut sauce is nice as-is, but I added some chili-garlic sauce to it to give it some heat. I like my tofu very firm and crisp, so I drained it very very well before putting this together."
