Tofu, Millet and Spinach Croquettes Monastery

Monastero's Organic Tofu, Millet, and Spinach Croquettes are the perfect blend of artisanal craftsmanship, a short supply chain, and plant-based innovation. Each bite contains 38% organic tofu made from organic yellow soybeans and natural nigari, enriched with 15% fresh spinach and 11,5% whole millet, an ancient grain with an unmistakable golden tang. A handcrafted sourdough breading provides a crispy exterior that encloses a soft, juicy center fragrant with Mediterranean herbs—organic marjoram, basil, and oregano. Designed for those seeking a healthy, surprisingly tasty, plant-based ready-to-eat meal, sure to please even the most traditional palates.
 
 
 

The roots of these Tofu Croquettes are deep in tradition

Tofu, nicknamed "meat of the fields" in the ancient East, is an ancient food originating in China over 2000 years ago and becoming a staple of Japanese and macrobiotic cuisine. Millet, on the other hand, is one of the oldest grains cultivated in the Mediterranean basin: a staple nutrient for the Etruscan and Roman populations before the advent of wheat, it was for centuries the "bread of the poor," capable of sustaining generations with its comprehensive nutritional profile. Spinach, introduced to Italy by the Arabs in the Middle Ages, conquered monastic gardens for its therapeutic properties. Monastero combines these three traditions in a contemporary product, where the Eastern wisdom of tofu meets the rusticity of local grains in a completely organic recipe.
 
 
 

Choosing Tofu, Millet and Spinach Croquettes means taking care of yourself

These kibbles are a complete plant-based experience. Organic tofu provides high-quality plant-based protein containing all nine essential amino acids, comparable to animal protein but completely cholesterol-free and low in saturated fat. Millet is rich in silicon, magnesium, iron, and B vitamins, particularly alkalizing and perfect for those with gluten intolerances—it's naturally gluten-free. Spinach provides chlorophyll, folic acid, iron, and vitamins A, C, and K. The result is a light dish (only 229 kcal per 100g) rich in isoflavones that protect the cardiovascular and hormonal systems, ideal for athletes, vegans, vegetarians, growing children, and anyone who wants to include more plant-based protein in their daily diet without sacrificing flavor.
