Ingredients: (for about four servings)
- 1 15-oz can pineapple chunks
- 1 block firm tofu, cut into bite-size pieces, drained, blotted dry and marinated with my Garlic-Chili Marinade from the Tempeh Tacos post, at least a few hours in advance
- 2 small red bell peppers, cut into strips
For the sauce:
- 1/2 cup pineapple juice
- 3 tablespoons tamari
- 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced
- 1-2 garlic gloves, chopped
- hot red pepper flakes, to taste
- 2 teaspoons corn starch
Mix up the sauce ingredients while you brown the tofu in a skillet. When the tofu is nice and golden on most sides, add the pineapple and peppers. Saute until the peppers are softened but not overcooked. Stir in the sauce and cook until thickened. Serve over rice. Seriously, this is better than take-out!
Tonight for dinner, we made Breakfast Tacos. We've been on a Mexican kick lately (Tempeh Tacos and going out for burritos), but never have tried this concoction. Scrambled tofu with roasted red peppers and green onions, guacamole, salsa, and Yve's Veggie Ham fried up like bacon, all wrapped up in a corn tortilla. This was really tasty, although I can say I'm not the biggest fan of soft corn tortillas--maybe crunchy would be better next time.

I think I'm learning the lesson that just because it's healthy, doesn't mean I can eat 12 servings. This was a great weekend for food! Memories...
