4 tablespoons coconut aminos
2 tablespoons soy sauce

What you do:
- In a medium nonstick pan over medium heat, add cabbage, onion, and carrots and cook until soft. Crumble tofu and add. Add soy sauce, rice vinegar, toasted sesame oil, ginger, and garlic. Cook 10 minutes and then remove from heat.
- To the center of each wonton wrapper, add 1 teaspoon of vegetable and tofu mixture. Fold wonton wrapper forming a triangle. Lightly moisten edges of wrapper with water and press together.
