Health is Wealth's Tofu Munchees

Little whole-wheat pillows stuffed with organic tofu cheese and broccoli or spinach -- with a silly name!

Pop them in the oven and these mini egg rolls turn into delicious "cheesy" centers surrounded by decadent I-can't-believe-it's-not-deep-fried crust.

Six Broccoli Tofu Munchees have just five grams of fat (none of them saturated), 140 milligrams of sodium, 160 calories, and three grams of fiber. (The box lists two Munchees-1 ounce, as a serving, but you could easily eat six. That would match the 3-ounce serving listed by other munchie-type makers.) The Spinach Tofu Munchees have a bit more saturated fat (one gram) and sodium (320 mg).

The company's seven other Munchees -- including Burrito, Pizza Tofu, and Veggie -- also come wrapped in whole (or mostly whole) wheat crusts. And while they have a bit too much sodium, they're worlds better than most of the competition. Totino's Pizza Rolls and La Choy Mini Egg Roll Munchers, for example, average about twice as much fat and saturated fat.
