So, here goes the normalcy for Ryan and Me.  Tonight we make tofu at home for the first time ever, and to our delight, we didn’t create a disaster!  The over all effect of this dish is surprisingly asian inspired, with the hoisin sauce and ginger.  We served this on a heaping bed of spinach and devoured every bite.

Tofu with Black Beans and Garlic

  • 1 tsp. sesame oil
  • 1 14-ounce can black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 tbs. minced fresh garlic
  • 1/3 cup sliced extra-firm tofu
  • 2 tsp. grated fresh ginger
  • 3 tbs. hoisin sauce
  1. Heat oil in a nonstick skillet.
  2. Add beans and garlic; stir fry for 2 minutes.
  3. Add tofu and ginger; cook stirring frequently, 2 minutes.
  4. Stir in hoisin sauce.
  5. Serve over brown rice or spinach.
