Ingredients
Two heads of broccoli
One box of extra firm tofu
Brown rice
Your favorite marinade or stir fry sauce
Coconut oil
Honey or agave
Chili powder
Garlic powder
Bragg's liquid aminos
Pepper
Method
This one requires a bit of forethought. You must freeze and thaw the tofu or this meal is no fun.
Take your frozen tofu out of the 'fridge in the morning, unwrap, and place in a colander in the sink. It will be thawed by dinner time.
Start the brown rice first. Bring to a boil 2 cups of water. Add 1 cup of rice, bring back to a boil, then bring down to a simmer. Simmer, covered, for 35-40 minutes.
Slice tofu into strips and lie them on a paper towel. Set another paper towel over them and press them to death with your hands. You might go through an obscene amount of paper towels during this process, but it is worth it. Press that tofu until no more juice comes out.
Place the tofu on a plate and cover with your favorite marinade or stir fry sauce. Sprinkle with pepper, chili powder, garlic powder, and honey or agave. Set aside.
Cut out broccoli florets.
Heat coconut oil in a pan.
Saute florets, but keep them tender. Season with pepper.
Remove florets from pan, add more coconut oil and heat.
Add tofu and cook until golden.
Enjoy broccoli and tofu served over the brown rice. Season with liquid aminos.
This meal is healthy, hearty, and so cheap it's not even funny.
