Stir Fry

  • 1 lb tofu, extra firm

  • I large head broccoli, cut into florets

  • 1 red pepper, diced

  • 1 cup of kale, stems stripped, washed, chopped

  • 1 large yellow onion, diced

  • 1 large portabella mushroom, chopped

  • 1/2 jar Mandarin oranges

  • 1 packet Udon Noodles

*I would have added snap peas if I’d had them. Add all the veggies you think would go!

Instructions

  1. Dice the tofu into bite-sized pieces. Place on a cookie sheet. Cover with a clean towel folded into three or four layers.

  2. Place another cookie sheet on top.

  3. Put heavy items on top of that, such as an iron skillet or heavy cookbooks.

  4. While the tofu drains (give it 15 minutes) make the marinade by whisking all ingredients together.

  5. Place the tofu cubes in an 8x8 baking dish, or something of similar size with a tight-fitting lid.

  6. Pour the marinade over the tofu. Cover and refrigerate for at least an hour, flipping the container every fifteen minutes. (Hence the tight-fitting lid.)

*You can let it soak overnight for even more flavor.

  1. While the tofu soaks, make the terrayaki sauce by whisking all ingredients together. Set aside.

  2. Heat a non-stick pan until water will bead into a single droplet. Add the onions, peppers, mushrooms, broccoli florets, stirring frequently to keep them from sticking. Let the sugar form that sticky brown on the pan, that's the good stuff.

  3. When that starts happening, add some of the sauce to deglaze, and keep stirring and cooking. When the veggies are close to finished, add the chopped kale, and the rest of the terrayaki sauce, cover the pan and let cook.

  4. In another very hot non-stick pan, put the tofu pieces. They should sizzle when they go in. I stand close by, adjusting the heat as I go. Cook 2-3 minutes, then turn over. Repeat untill all six sides are golden brown. The pan will get very sticky, but that's okay.

  5. Finally, add the tofu, cooked noodles, and mandarin oranges to the cooked veggies, and stir so it gets all mingled in with the sauce and veggies. Let it all heat through. Remove from heat.

Serve garnished with a small amount of sesame seeds and/or slivered almonds. Seriously, just a few.


A whole foods, plant-based diet that excludes oils and heavily processed foods and minimizes sugars, sodium, and minimally processed foods has been shown to reverse coronary artery disease, type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and several cancers.
It also saves 1100 gallons of water, 45 pounds of grain, 30 square feet of forest, 1 animal’s life, and keeps 10 lbs of CO2 from entering our atmosphere, every single day.
