A low fat vegetarian meal over yellow rice. Or without the tofu as a vegetable side with your dinner.

Ingredients

1 Onion, diced

1 tbsp Garlic, crushed

Hot sauce or cayenne pepper (to taste)

1 lb Frozen broccoli florrets

1 lb Frozen sweet peas

1/2 lb Fresh button mushrooms, sliced

1 lb Cubed firm tofu, drained (optional)

1 tsp Ground ginger

3 tbs Soy sauce (low sodium is healthier)

1 1/2 tsp Cornstarch

1 pkg Yellow rice, prepared as directed

Preparation

Saute' the onion and garlic with the cayenne pepper until soft. Add the ginger, peas, and broccoli. Cook over medium heat for about 5-7 minutes. Add the mushrooms and the tofu.

In a small bowl, mix together the soy sauce, 3 tbsp. water, and the corn starch. Slowly add to the cooked veggies, mixing constantly. The sauce should thicken and coat the veggies. If not thick enough, try heating a little longer, or adding a little more cornstarch and water mixture, until the sauce thickens.

Serve over prepared yellow rice.
