Honey Glazed Soy Tofu

Honey-Soy Glazed Tofu, Broccoli, and Brown Rice Recipe

When things are extra busy, we all appreciate quick, easy, healthy and well rounded weeknight dinners four our families. And this is one of my favorites, especially because when I serve it, both of my super picky boys clean their plates!

servings: serves 4

prep time: 15 minutes

cook time: 15 minutes

total time: 30 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 1 pound extra firm tofu
  • ½ cup low sodium soy sauce
  • 4 tablespoons honey
  • 4 cups broccoli, roughly chopped into small pieces
  • 2 cups cooked brown rice
  • grape seed oil for the pan

Preparation:

Step 1: Set up a plate with a double layer of paper towels, remove the tofu from the package and place it on the towels. Use another paper towel to pat the top and sides.(You want to absorb as much liquid as possible.)

Step 2: In a shallow baking dish (about 9 X 9 inches), whisk the soy sauce with the honey, and cut the tofu into bite-sized pieces (½ inch – 1 inch).
