Easy Tofu Stir Fry
Ingredients
- 1 pack extra firm tofu
- 1 bag veggie and stir fry kit
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- seasonings
Instructions
- In a skillet , warm up some olive oil and add your tofu cubes to your skillet. Add a little bit of onion and garlic powder, dash of salt and some pepper.
- If you want them a bit crispier try and flip them to brown all sides. If you don’t have that much patience like me. Just gently shuffle them across the pan to cook all sides
- In another pan, add some oil and pour your veggie mix (mine had cabbage, broccoli, and snap crisps)
- When those are cooked toss in your tofu and add your sauce.
- You can keep it plain and just add more salt, oil and garlic powder or add soy sauce to your dish.
