Empanadas De Tofu Y Arroz

I'm always looking for new tofu recipes. This one is a keeper.

Preheat oven to 350.

While the rice is cooking , saute the garlic for 3 minutes , add the pepper , cumin , parsley , tofu , and tamari and cook for 5 more minutes.

Add the cooked rice and mix well.

With a spoon , scoop some of the filling in the upper half of the empanada round , making sure to leave a large enough border.

Fold the lower half over the top part to form a semi-circle.

Press the edges together and go around the edge with the teeth of a fork to seal it.

Place on a non-stick cookie sheet and bake for 20 minutes or until golden.
