I make these with my students during the international cuisine unit and in the appetizer unit. This is great for introducing tofu in a way that has a lot of flavor and makes students think of salads as more than lettuce.
Copycat Aussie Bites

Everyone I knew was raving about these Aussie bites that you can buy at Costco. They're not cheap so I decided to put my students to work testing out a recipe that would match or improve upon the Costco version.
