Ingredients:

  • 1 ¼ cup quinoa
  • 2 ½ cups water
  • ¼ cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoon peanut butter
  • 1 tablespoon tomato paste
  • 1 teaspoon freshly grated ginger root
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 teaspoon rice vinegar
  • 1 tsp siracha (more or less, depending on taste)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 green onions, chopped, divided
  • 1 14-ounce container extra-firm tofu, cut into ½-inch cubes
  • 3 cups chopped fresh Smith's Farm's broccoli (chopped small!)

Instructions:

  1. In a pot, cook the quinoa in the water according to package directions.
  2. While it cooks, heat olive oil in a large frying pan. Add the white parts of the green onions and saute 1 to 2 minutes. Add in the tofu. Cook for 10 to 15 minutes, stirring regularly, until golden on all sides.
  3. In a small bow, combine sauce ingredients (peanut butter, tomato paste, vinegar, siracha, soy sauce, honey, and ginger). Whisk til combined.
  4. When tofu is golden, add in the fresh broccoli and saute 3 to 4 minutes. You want it slightly firm but not hard.
  5. Add in the quinoa and sauce and mix well.
  6. Top with green parts of onion and enjoy!
