Love the Marry Me flavors as much as we do? You NEED to try this Marry Me Tofu as well as my original Marry Me Butter Beans!

I’ve had the idea for this method in my head for so long and it turned out even better than I expected. I basically mashed together 2 of my viral recipes: marry me beans + my tofu pasta sauce that used silken tofu instead of cream. It’s savory!

I also love how incredibly high-protein this is with lots of protein coming from both the beans + the tofu. Not too bad for a vegetarian meal:)

Ingredients we’re working with:

Silken tofu – we’re using this in place of the heavy cream that you’ll find in the old-style version of this dish. Not only does it do a good job of adding creaminess to this dish but it also greatly increases the amount of protein per serving!
Butter Beans – A regular here that butter beans have been having a moment lately. They’re so butter smooth and I genuinely love them. That being said, they can sometimes be more expensive OR difficult to find. So, feel free to swap them for genuinely any other beans that you prefer. I’ve made this with white cannellini beans as well as chickpeas and both are great.
Sun-dried tomatoes – for that familiar tuscan taste!
Broth – to add flavor and creaminess
Garlic – lots of it:)
Butter – use vegan as desired.
Nutritional yeast – I use this in place of the parmesan cheese but Violife makes a SATISFYING vegan parmesan cheese and if you can swing it, I highly recommend trying that instead of the nutritional yeast.
Seasoning – a handful of spices to add depths of flavor!
