I am super proud of this recipe. I saw a tofu friend rice recipe and decided to create one of my own with ingredients i had at home.
What you'll need:
4 stalks celery
1/2 white onion
small peice ginger
2 cups kale
1 carrot
1 cup brown rice
1/4 cup quinoa
soy sauce (preferably low sodium)
teriyaki sauce (preferably no high fructose corn syrup & low sodium)
1/2 package extra firm tofu
dash garlic powder
2tbsp crushed red pepper

1/2 package extra firm tofu
dash garlic powder
2tbsp crushed red pepper
Bring 2 cups of water to a boil and add brown rice. allow to boil for about 2 minutes, add quinoa & bring down to a simmer. cut up vegetables small enough to get in a food processor. Process veggies until tiny.
Cut tofu into cubes and press firmly with a paper towel to absorb water. fry in a frying pan coated with olive oil spray. add 2 tbsp soy sauce as well as garlic powder and red pepper flakes. cook on high to medium- i prefer it will done. when tofu is slightly browned add veggies. when the kale becomes dark and you get a really great aroma its just about done.
youll know the rice is done because itll be soft & the water will be gone. mix it in to the frying pan. in the end i add 2 tbsp of teriyaki sauce and turn the frying pan heat up pretty high. i think it tastes good when its a little "crispy" having to scrape the rice off of the bottom of the pan as you mix... although im sure it tastes fine not a little burnt too lol
makes 2 large servings.
