Maple-Cumin Tofu With Farro
From Jenny Sugar, POPSUGAR Fitness
Ingredients
- 1 cup farro
3 cups low-sodium vegetable broth
1 can black beans, rinsed
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 8-ounce block of super extra firm tofu, cubed
2 tablespoons tamari (or soy sauce)
1/4 teaspoon fresh minced ginger (or ground ginger)
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1 medium-sized carrot
1 tablespoon maple syrup
1 red bell pepper, sliced
1 small crown of broccoli, cut into florets (about 2 cups)
Directions
- Add the farro and veggie broth to a covered pot. Cook on high until boiling, reduce to simmer, and cook for another 30 minutes or until the farro is tender. Stir in the black beans.
- While the farro is cooking, place a large sauté pan on medium heat. Add the olive oil, and allow it to heat up for a minute or so. Add the tofu and drizzle with the tamari, and sprinkle with ginger, garlic powder, and cumin. Use a spatula to stir it all up.
- Allow the tofu to cook, stirring every couple minutes.
- While the tofu is cooking, peel the carrots with a grater. Then continue grating each carrot, creating long strips (they're much more fun to eat than chopped carrots).
- After the tofu has cooked for 15 minutes, stir in the maple syrup. Then add the carrots and bell peppers, and cook for 5 minutes.
- Stir in the broccoli, and cook for another 10 minutes or until the broccoli looks vibrantly green and is slightly tender.
- Spoon out 1/4 of the farro-bean mixture into a bowl. Top with 1/4 of the tofu-veggie mixture, and enjoy immediately.
