Saag Tofu Recipe

Recipe By EatingWell

Also known as palak paneer, saag paneer is an indian classic composed mostly of spinach and paneer--a cow's-milk cheese that is curdled then pressed until firm. Here, we substitute tofu for the cheese and incorporate low-fat yogurt and sliced onions for a healthier version that retains its authenticity.
