Quinoa and Tofu Stir-Fry

Here is a really healthy recipe with quinoa and tofu. Quinoa has proteins and iron so you don’t need to eat meat when you eat it. You can find it at the grocery store, usually with the rice or with the lentils and beans.


Ingredients:

• 3/4 cup of quinoa
• 1 egg
• 1 1/2 cup of tofu
• 1 ts olive oil
• 3 carrots, sliced
• 2 cups of snow peas
• 1 clove garlic, sliced
• 2 tbs grated ginger
• fresh cilantro
• 2 scallions, sliced
• 2 tbs tamari sauce
• salt and pepper

Cook the quinoa as indicated on the bag.

In a saucepan, heat the olive oil and cook carrots for about 2 minutes. Then, add the ginger and the garlic and stir from time to time. Add the snow peas and cook for 5 minutes. Remove the veggies from the saucepan and put the egg and the quinoa together and mix until you can’t see the egg. Then, put back the cooked veggies with the quinoa. Add the tofu, the scallions, the tamari sauce, salt and pepper. Cook 10 minutes and add the cilantro just before serving.
