"General Tso's chicken is one of the most popular dishes at Chinese food restaurants in America, so why not try this vegetarian and vegan version using tofu? It's got all the same spices and seasonings as General Tso's chicken, but it's made with tofu in place of the chicken. Try this recipe with a mock chicken product, such as gardein, or another meat substitute...."
