Tofu tends to have a bad reputation for being bland. However, with the right combination of sauce and seasonings, it can soak up all the flavor and make for a delicious meal. Add fresh and colorful veggies and you get a fast and healthy dinner
Prepare This Easy Tofu Stir Fry with Simple Ingredients
- Tofu: We used firm tofu because it has less moisture and easier to get it crispy during the cooking process
- Aromatics: We used red onions and garlic to round out the flavors of this dish, but you can also use green onions or shallots
- Vegetables: We used a combination of colorful vegetables such as carrots, green beans, broccoli, and red bell peppers
- Cashew: You can also use peanuts which are found in many stir fry recipes
- Seasonings: We seasoned this dish with a honey soy sauce, along with sesame seeds and sesame oil which are traditional in Asian-inspired dishes
