I love to make tofu veggie stir fry with brown rice.
1. Cook extra firm tofu in virgin coconut oil until brown
2. in another pan cook mixed veggies. I use organic broccoli, red peppers, green peppers, zucchini, snow peas, and baby carrots in a spicy ginger teriyaki sauce I get from Whole Foods. It's even better when blended with a curry powder for more zest.
Here's another easy but tasty recipe
Casareccia with Zucchini and Fresh Basil
8 oz. dry casareccia pasta (2 cups) or you can substitute with another type of pasta.
4 small zucchini, julienned (4 cups)
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 cup low-fat ricotta
1/2 cup torn fresh basil
Casareccia looks like macaroni that have been split open and twisted. The groovy shape is perfect for light sauces.
1. Cook pasta in large pot of boiling salted water according to package directions; add zucchini to pasta water 1 minute before end of cooking time.
2. Meanwhile, whisk together garlic and ricotta in large bowl. Drain zucchini and pasta, and add to ricotta mixture. Stir in basil, and season with salt and pepper, if desired
