Finally, it’s Friday and this week was such a drag for many of us because of the long weekend! But thankfully my Sweet and Sour Tofu Recipe was there to brighten our meal situation. For me, weeknight meals are such a touchy topic as we start thinking of all these delicious dishes and many times we are so tired to cook that we end up ordering a pizza.
Ingredients for Sweet and Sour Tofu Recipe
Tofu – I’m using extra firm tofu Green Bell Pepper Onion Carrots Sweet-Sour Sauce
I’m always on a lookout for easier (like 10-15 mins recipe), healthier options and I’m so glad I came across ‘Seeds of Change® Sauces‘. Basically, Seeds of Change is an organic seeds and food brand and they recently launched new organic Simmer Sauces that are: Free of artificial colors, flavors, and preservatives. They come in an easy no mess, easy-to-pour 8 oz. pouch. (Given below are some of the sauces options): I’m really excited to try all these flavors but since we were in the mood to have Chinese food, I went ahead with the ‘Sweet and Sour Simmer Sauce‘.
How to Make Sweet and Sour Tofu Recipe:
The instructions are fairly simple and all you got to do is gather your favorite veggies (chopped) and protein of choice (we are using tofu).
Then sautee the veggies and tofu till it’s cooked (took me 5 minutes). Then add the sauce and simmer for 7-8 minutes. That’s it 🙂 Now you see why I’m soooo happy !!!
It was so simple and literally a no-mess or fuss recipe. No spices to mix, no other sauces to mix, just snip open the package, cook and serve kinda meal. It literally took me 15 minutes to get the dish made and served on the table. While the dish was cooking, I also steamed some brown rice to serve along with it. Now, that we have devoured this Tofu Recipe, I can’t wait to try the other sauces… Maybe I’ll try the Mushroom Simmer Sauce next as we did see some gorgeous farm-fresh mushrooms in our local farmers market. So go ahead and grab these simmer sauces, priced at $3.25/each and they are available at Target, Meijer, Albertsons, Publix, Harris Teeter, and Price Chopper As per me, it fits my ‘Budget Meal’ definition too as the package feeds 4 people using minimum other ingredients. I’m definitely sure that the Seeds of Change® organic simmer sauces will inspire you to easily prepare tasty and healthy meals every day.
