meatless monday

Happy Earth Day! 

What better way to celebrate the earth than with a big bowl of Tofu Stir-Fry! This bowl is PACKED with all sorts of goodies that I am so happy to share with you. Once a week, we cut our meat from our diet (Meatless Monday). I think it's pretty cool that Earth Day and Meatless Monday are sharing the same day.

Here is the recipe

Ingredients 

one. one package of tofu (we prefer to use extra-firm in this house)
two. one cup of bell peppers, chopped (red, orange, yellow, green, whatever color you have will be beautiful).
three. 1/2 onion, chopped
four. 1/2 bag of frozen broccoli
five. one bag of frozen green beans

six. one cup of brown rice
seven. 4 tbsp liquid aminos (it is a substitute for soy sauce, if you don't have it use low sodium soy sauce)
eight. two eggs

Directions

one. preheat oven to 400, cook tofu on baking sheet lined with aluminum foil and sprayed with nonstick spray. the tofu needs to be cut up into little sticks. turn a timer on for 30 minutes and flip (they will stick a little bit, but that's okay) and then cook for another 20 minutes or until golden.

two. throw all the veggies into a skillet with your liquid aminos or low-sodium soy sauce.

three. cook the brown rice according to the directions on the bag or box.

four. scramble your two eggs.
five. once your veggies are cooked down add the brown rice and the scrambled eggs.
six. crumble the cooked tofu on the top of your brown rice, egg and veggie mixture, toss and enjoy!
