Buffalo Tofu you say? Don't knock it till you try it. I used to love love a buffalo chicken sandwich and have been looking for a good alternative. So here is what I came up with!
Ingredients:
-Extra Firm Tofu sliced long ways (slice 4 strips about 1/4 inch wide)
-1TBS olive oil
-3/4 cup bread crumbs
-Buffalo Sauce (of your choice) I love Franks)
Directions:
-Heat pan with olive oil
-cover each slice of tofu with the bread crumbs ( the water of the tofu should make the bread crumbs stick)
-Place tofu in pan and cook about 3-5 min on each side medium heat or until crisp and brown
-Remove the tofu from the pan and place on plate, drizzle as much or as little buffalo sauce that your mouth can handle.

Footnote:
I eat mine with out a bun
Alternatives:
-Use a low carb wrap to make a sandwich with some veggie cheese
-Use a nice toasted bun with veggie cheese
-Also if you have a hunkering for some ranch to go with your Buffalo Tofu, there are some great alternatives, I believe "Annie's" sells a vegan ranch dressing that is very tasty!
-If your not crazy about tofu any vegan burger would do as long as you have buffalo sauce, the possibilities are endless!!!
Enjoy:)
