We all have those meals...the one's we fix weekly for our family. They're quick, easy, or yummy...or quick, easy, AND yummy and often requested by members of our family. Sometimes, though, we get tired of the same things every week, which is why I'm proposing a "recipe swap" of sorts. If you'd like to contribute to and benefit from "Go-To Grub!", please e-mail me your recipes, with "Go-To Grub" in the message line, as many or as few as you like; you might even have them in your sent box because someone has asked you for them in the past! This could potentially be a really great source of variety for our weekly meal plans, so please join the fun! E-mail them as soon as you have some free time so we can get this up and running.

Feel free to pass this along!

Tofu Stir-Fry

This is a go-to meal in the kitchen of Brooke J.!

14 oz. package tofu
3 T cornstarch
2 T low-sodium teriyaki sauce
1/2 t ground ginger
1/4 t garlic powder
2 T olive oil
1 C broccoli florets
1 C thinly sliced carrots
1 C red/green bell pepper
1 small onion, cut into wedges
1 C any other veggie you like (I like to do squash or zucchini or both sometimes!)
1 C low-sodium chicken broth

Directions:
1. Cut tofu into 1/2 inch cubes; place in resealable plastic bag. Add cornstarch, teriyaki sauce, ginger, and garlic powder to bag; shake well. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
2. In a large skillet or wok, heat the oil and add carrots and onions. Cook about 3-5 minutes. Add all other veggies. Cook for another 4-5 minutes or until veggies are crisp-tender. Add chicken broth and tofu. Cook and stir until thickened and bubbly.

Yields 4-5 servings
