Ingredients

  • 16 oz organic extra or super firm tofu, cut into cubes drained and moisture removed
  • 2 cups cooked brown rice/quinoa and brown rice I use Seeds of Change Garlic Quinoa and Brown Rice
  • 1 can, 15oz black beans drained
  • 1 can, 14.5 oz roasted tomatoes drained
  • 2 cups mixed greens
  • ½ cup green onions
  • 1 tablespoon chile lime seasoning I used Trader Joe's, but any brand will work. See notes for a homemade recipe if you want to make your own
  • 1 tablespoon granulated garlic
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 3 tablespoon olive oil
  • ½ avocado, sliced
  • 2 tablespoon cilantro

Instructions

  • Remove tofu from package.  Wrap in clean towel.  Place weight on top to remove moisture and let sit for 15 minutes.  (I used a cast iron pan, but use anything heavy)
  • After tofu has moisture removed, cut into cubes.  Heat olive oil in pan, and add tofu.  Sprinkle with granulated garlic and salt and stir fry for 5 minutes on medium heat, gently turning so you don't break tofu.
  • Add rice, beans, onions and greens.  Stir into tofu.  Sprinkle chile lime seasoning and mix well.
  • When rice, beans and greens are throughly heated, add tomatoes and mix.
  • Serve with cilantro and avocado.
