Spinach Stir-Fry

Here’s a great vegan/vegetarian dish (depending on which stock you use) that makes a great side dish for an Asian meal. If you want to kick up the portion size, this tasty stir-fry could serve as the main course—or even the entire meal. Popeye would be proud.

• 1/2 cup low-sodium vegetable or chicken stock
• 1 tsp. grated ginger
• 1 large clove garlic, crushed
• 1 Tbsp. soy sauce, regular or low-sodium
• 1 10-oz. bag spinach
• 1 12-oz. container firm tofu, cubed
• Dash chili oil (optional)

 

Mix the stock, ginger, garlic, and soy sauce in a big bowl and add the tofu. Marinate for 30 minutes. Heat a wok or frying pan over medium heat. Place tofu mixture in wok and heat until marinade steams and tofu is warmed through. Add spinach and toss gently over heat until spinach wilts. Great on top of brown rice! Makes 3 servings.
