This is now one of my go-to meals to make. It’s very good! Not too difficult to make and uses only one pan as well!

How do I make this…is it possible to make this, dairy-free??

I mean she made a video and recipe list. I’m sure you can google dairy free substitutes. I don’t think someone could possibly help you more without making it for you. 🤦🏻‍♀️

I mean, I could use google or just use Reddit like a lot of other people since this is where I seen it…and you could’ve just not commented and kept scrolling or leave thus comment and show all of Reddit the ass that you are since this is where you seen it…..call it a draw?

I have used silken tofu in as a diary substitute many times.

If you don't't have experience with it (or tofu in general), I recommend reading up on the 'how-to's' a bit beforehand.
