Broccoli, Broccoli Who?

Broccoli, Tofu and Cashew Stir Fry

Another recipe for the database. This is probably my favorite of the three that I've now posted. Again, this is a super easy recipe that includes two of the 7 super foods - you guessed it broccoli and soy (tofu). It also has many of the same ingredients, ginger, garlic and soya sauce, as the last recipe that I posted. Using some of the leftover shiitake mushrooms would be a great addition to this recipe, don't you think? I'm getting hungry just thinking about it!

I'm posting the recipe from memory so hopefully it's complete and accurate.

• one tsp of olive oil


• 3 cloves of garlic (or to your taste)


• about a thumb sized peice of fresh grated ginger


• about half an onion, chopped


• one small head of broccoli chopped into bite-sized pieces


• one package of tofu, well pressed and cut into cubes


• 3 tsp of soya sauce


• about half a bag (100g) of cashew nuts

Saute garlic, ginger and onions in olive oil for about 3 or 4 minutes. Add the broccoli. After a few minutes add the tofu and the soya sauce. When the tofu is heated through add the cashew nuts. Mix well and there you have it another delicious veggie meal.
