Salad with Sauteed Tofu and Brown Rice


Here is a filling, healthy, and delicious salad recipe! I hope you like it!


What you need:

1/2 cup dark leafy greens
1/2 tomato chopped
1/4 cup shredded carrots
1/2 avocado
1/4 cup steamed brown rice
1/2 block tofu
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 teaspoons toasted sesame oil (optional)
1 clove garlic
2 tablespoons olive oil
your favorite dressing


What to do:

You can use any vegetables to put into your salad. I just think these ones complement the brown rice and tofu well.
Compile all the vegetables.
Dry tofu and cut into cubes. Put the tofu into a bowl.
Pour soy sauce and sesame oil over tofu just enough to cover it. Crush garlic and add to tofu-soy sauce mix.


In a saute pan heat olive oil for about 1 minute.
Once heated, pour tofu into the pan.


Stir tofu often and cook about 5-10 minutes until the tofu has browned.
Pour hot tofu onto the salad and enjoy with your favorite dressing!


*The cooked tofu can be refrigerated up to 3 days. If you would like it warm you can reheat it in the microwave.
