with this meal kit.\u00a0 She liked the noodles and the stir fry sauce, though she wished there had been a greater variety of vegetables.\u00a0 To be fair, I omitted the red pepper that came with the kit because she doesn&#8217;t like red peppers.\u00a0 She wasn&#8217;t too happy with the tofu itself &#8211; mostly because she&#8217;s sick of eating tofu.\u00a0 Tofu, she says, always tastes like tofu, no matter what you do to it.\u00a0 She&#8217;d like it if some of these kits came with other fake meats.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-1759\" src=\"https:\/\/www.marga.org\/foodblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_8606-e1540588747540-1024x740.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"590\" height=\"426\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.marga.org\/foodblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_8606-e1540588747540-1024x740.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.marga.org\/foodblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_8606-e1540588747540-300x217.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.marga.org\/foodblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_8606-e1540588747540-768x555.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.marga.org\/foodblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_8606-e1540588747540.jpg 1534w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 590px) 100vw, 590px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>All the ingredients for this kit arrived fresh and were still usable a couple of days later when I actually made the meal &#8211;
