2-3 cups chopped veggies – use “saute-able” veggies like – asparagus, snow peas, mushrooms, shredded cabbage, chard, kale, bell pepper, zucchini, carrots… you get the idea. Use what you have.

8 ounces tofu, blotted with paper towels, and either cut into cubes, or crumbled

salt and pepper to taste

Cooking instruction summary:

InstructionsHeat oil in a large skillet. Saute onion 2 minutes over medium high heat, then turn heat to medium add garlic and other veggies. Lightly salt. Saut until al dente, turning heat down if necessary and/or covering.Once veggies are just tender, make a well in the center of the pan and add the tofu, and saute it back at medium heat. If the tofu sticks instead of adding more oil- try letting it form a golden crust, before trying to flip it, and use a metal spatula. (When something browns in a pan, it will naturally detach from the pan.)Season tofu with salt, pepper and turmeric. When tofu is starting to have some crispy edges, fold it into the veggies, and taste. If it tastes bland, it most likely needs a little salt and I like to add a very tiny drizzle of Braggs liquid aminos or soy sauce. ( Use a light hand).Many people like to add nutritional yeast for a rich, cheesy flavor- so feel free to add teaspoon or two if so inclined.Divide among two bowls and add sliced avocado, sprouts, scallions or chopped herbs, and a few seeds. Top with sriarcha hot sauce if you like!

Food Joke

Juan was driving down a country lane in his pickup when suddenly a chicken darted into the road in front of him. He slammed on his brakes, but realized that the chicken wasspeeding off down the road at about 30 miles an hour. Intrigued, he tried to follow the bird with his truck, but he couldn`t catch up to the accelerating chicken. Seeing itturn into a small farm, Juan followed it. To his astonishment, he realized that the chicken had three legs. Looking around the small farm, he noticed that ALL of thechickens had three legs.The farmer came out of his house, and Juan said, "Three-legged chickens? That`s astonishing!"The farmer replied, "Yep. I bred `em that way because I love drumsticks."Juan was curious. "How does a three-legged chicken taste?"The farmer smiled. "Dunno. Haven`t been able to catch one yet."
