 Broccoli Tofu with Garlic Sauce This is one of my favorite stir-fries to order at Chinese restaurants, but it’s a risky endeavor due to animal products so I only get this at vegetarian restaurants. Here’s a quick and easy recipe to make at home that tastes just like a healthier version of the classic dish. This is perfect for people who are into garlic but you can spice it up with red pepper flakes and/or chile sauce at the end, too. As always, my favorite tofu is the super-firm kind that is easy to find these days at Trader Joe’s or Whole Foods; if you don’t have access to one, pressing your tofu will make it taste best and not break apart in this dish.
