‹‹ Back

Ingredients

  • 2 Tbs lime juice
  • 1 Tbs lower-sodium soy sauce
  • 4 oz firm tofu, in small cubes
  • 1/4 c. chopped carrots
  • 2 tsp dark sesame oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tsp minced fresh ginger
  • 1/4 c. sliced snowpeas
  • 1/4 c. sliced celery
  • 2 green onions, sliced
  • 2 c. cooked rice
  • Lime wedges (optional)

Directions

  1. Combine the lime juice and soy sauce and pour over the tofu. Set aside until needed.
  2. Blanch the carrots in boiling water for 2 minutes. Drain well and set aside. (If carrots are cut in small matchsticks, you do not need to blanch them.)
  3. Heat the oil in a nonstick skillet and briefly saute the garlic and ginger. Add the tofu and marinade, carrots, snowpeas, celery and green onions. Cook, stirring, over high heat about 1 minute. Add the rice and continue to cook and stir until tofu is beginning to brown, about 3 minutes. Serve with lime wedges to squeeze over the rice at the table, if desired.
