Calories: 395kcal
Ingredients
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 3 sprays Olive oil cooking spray
- 16oz package Organic Sprouted Firm Tofu cut into cubes
- 7oz package Teriyaki (or Savory) Baked Tofu cut into cubes
- 2 16oz Packages of Frozen Asian Mixed Veggies (about 10 cups) I like to get the one with the greatest variety of veggies - e.g. broccoli, carrots, green beans, snap peas, etc.
- 3 tbsp Low Sodium Soy Sauce more to taste
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 1 tsp minced ginger
- 1 sprinkle crushed red pepper more to taste
- ¼ cup Red Curry Sauce You can pretty much use any bottled curry or teriyaki sauce mixture you like – check out the Asian section in your supermarket. But make sure to get a sauce that has vegetarian (or vegan) friendly ingredients!
- 1 cup cooked Brown Rice or quinoa use 1/4 cup cooked per serving
- 1 tbsp Sesame Seeds as a garnish alternatively, use chopped cashews
- salt and pepper (or a hot sauce like siracha) to taste
Instructions
- Cook the brown rice or quinoa first – because that takes the longest to cook in this recipe. Cut your tofu into 1/2 inch cubes and set aside.
- Spray a large pan with cooking spray and heat over medium heat. Saute the tofu cubes until slightly crispy on the outside, add 1 Tbsp soy sauce towards the end of cooking for flavor.
- Heat a separate large pan or wok over medium to medium-high heat. Add olive oil, then pour the frozen veggies into the pan.
- Stir fry 5 minutes until the veggies are cooked through, add garlic, ginger, crushed red pepper, and remaining soy sauce. Cook another 5 minutes until everything is combined.
- Add the tofu cubes to the veggies, and the Red Curry Sauce. Stir fry lightly on medium-low heat until the entire mixture is heated through (about 5 minutes).
- Adjust seasonings as needed, add hot sauce if you like it spicy. Sprinkle sesame seeds or cashews on top. Serve with brown rice or quinoa.
Notes
- Use frozen veggies to keep things quick and simple!
- Don't over cook the vegetables or they will be mushy.
- Make sure your veggies are all cut into similar sized pieces so they cook evenly and at the same rate.
- Store the leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to four days.
