Supper. On nom nom. The marinade I threw together was genius.
No true measurements but the ingredients for marinade were
- low sodium soy sauce (a couple of Tbsps?)
- molasses (1 tsp?)
- garlic chili sauce (1 tsp?)
- crush garlic (1 clove)
I sliced the tofu (1/4 of a package of extra firm) and marinated it for 3 hours. While the tofu was being pan seared for texture I cook the veggies in the remaining marinade in a separate pan with a bit of added water so they could steam.
The rice is basmatti.

Spring green vegetables and whole soft-cooked eggs, with vanilla-flavored vinaigrette
(For 4 people)
For the vegetables:

Cream of Cauliflower and Leek Soup
Ingredients:
- 1 large head of cauliflower
- 1 large leek
- 3 C vegetable broth
- 2 C milk (I used hemp milk)
- 1/4 C nutritional yeast (or parmesan cheese would probably also work)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
Chop up the WHITES of the leek only (Save those greens for another day.) Break up the head of cauliflower. Dump into pot with vegetable broth and simmer until soft. Add milk of choice and simmer for a few more minutes. Stick your immersion blender in and blend blend blend until smooth. Add your nutritional yeast (or cheese) and stir. (If you are using cheese, definitely add after the immersion blender so it doesn’t stick to the blade)
This is delicious!!! I just threw it together tonight. It’s vegan, low carb, low cal and full of nutrients!
*This is assuming you made it with hemp milk (unsweetened) and yeast. Assuming 9 servings total form the pot. With Mr. MfF wandering around in the kitchen like a hawk… we might get 5… Maybe…
Recipe and picture mine. Share and enjoy. :D
