Compared to the original onion schnitzel this version is an all-vegetable and lower-fat way to revive the cozy comfort feeling of grandma's hearty cooking. Tofu is a smart meat substitute, especially for vegan fans. It contains all essential amino acids at once and also provides a lot of valuable protein for muscle and cell building. It's also great for the production of protective and defense substances.

For vegans, onion schnitzel is a real satiator as a side dish. They are perfect for dishes with lots of sauce and offer a nice change.
