Equipment
- 1 Glass jar or bowl For the peanut sauce
Ingredients
- 1½ cups cooked rice I used brown rice
- 1 tbsp olive oil plus more as needed
- 1 tsp garic powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 bell pepper sliced
- 1/4 red onion sliced
- 2 cups sliced mushrooms sliced
- 1 cup broccoli florets
- 350 g extra firm tofu
- 1 batch Quick, Healthy & Delicious Peanut Sauce
- 1/2 lime juiced
Instructions
- If your brown rice isn't already cooked, cook as per package instructions to yield 1½ cups, which is typically about ¾ cups of uncooked rice.
- In a large pan over medium heat, add the olive oil and let it heat up. Then, add the cubed tofu and sprinkle the garlic powder and salt over the tofu cubes. Sauté for 5-7 minutes, until the tofu is golden brown on the sides, and remove from the pan.
- Add the garlic, bell pepper, red onion, mushrooms, broccoli, plus a little more olive oil if needed to the pan. Sauté for another 5-10 minutes, until the veggies have softened and the water has evaporated out of the mushrooms.
- Once the veggies are finished cooking, add the cooked tofu, rice and Quick, Healthy & Delicious Peanut Sauce to the pan and sauté to combine. Add the lime juice over top and enjoy!
