Very Veggie Stir Fry

Mighty Tip

Washing and preparing vegetables in advance may increase your likelihood of using them before they go bad!

So many veggies in this stir fry, even down to the cauliflower rice! This recipe is made to be lower in sodium by using coconut aminos instead of soy sauce. To make life easier, wash and cut your vegetables before starting to cook because this dish comes together pretty quickly! Oh, did I mention I finally got to use my air fryer for this one?!

Air Fried Ginger Tofu

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Cut the tofu into ~1/2 inch cubes.

  2. Place the cubed tofu in a large plastic bag. Add the ginger dressing and coconut aminos. Let marinate for 30 minutes (or longer).

  3. Spray the bottom of the air fryer with a very light layer of oil. Add the marinated tofu.

  4. Air fry at 390 degrees for 14 minutes, or until crispy (time may vary based on air fryer). Pause and shake up the tofu every 5 minutes.
