Comments: My 2 year old vegan son is very finicky and most days all he wants is "noodles".I've tried many sauces and recepies, but he seems to enjoy this the most. I don't have a nutritional analysis but I'm confident that he's getting a varied array of nutrients. He also likes this tofu rolled in burrito shells.
