Instructions
- Prepare the oven fries: Preheat the oven to 425 F and line two large rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Place the potato wedges/matchsticks in a large bowl. Drizzle with the oil and sprinkle with salt, pepper, and arrowroot. Toss to coat. Arrange in an even layer on the baking sheets. Roast for 25-30 minutes, or until tender and crispy.
- Meanwhile, prepare the buffalo tofu: In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium-low heat. Whisk in the hot sauce, apple cider vinegar, and garlic powder. Remove from the heat.
- Warm the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the garlic and cook until lightly browned, stirring occasionally. Add the tofu and continue to cook for five minutes, until lightly browned. Mix in the buffalo sauce and continue to cook until most of the sauce has been absorbed.
- Make the Greek yogurt ranch: In a bowl, whisk together the yogurt, apple cider vinegar, salt, pepper, honey, mustard, garlic, and dill.
- Serve: Arrange the fries on a platter. Top with the buffalo tofu and cheese. Enjoy with the Greek yogurt ranch, vegetables, and avocado.
