Total Time 25 minutes
Servings 4

Ingredients

  • 1 block extra firm tofu cut into four filets
  • 1/3 cup teriyaki sauce
  • 1 cup rice uncooked
  • cilantro, lime, sesame seeds garnish

Avocado Mango Salsa

  • 1 cup diced red bell pepper
  • 1 cup diced ripe mango
  • 3/4 cup diced avocado
  • 1/2 cup finely diced red onion
  • 1/2 cup chopped cilantro
  • 1 tbsp lime juice
  • salt, pepper, and garlic powder

Instructions

  • First, cut a the tofu block into 4 filets, score diagonally in both directions on the surface to allow it to soak up more sauce as shown in this video.
  • Dip each tofu filet in teriyaki sauce. Saute or grill tofu for about 10 minutes (flip halfway through if it’s a pan).
  • Finely dice everything for mango salsa and add into a bowl!
  • Cook your rice. To make a classic white jasmine rice, bring 2 cups of water to a bowl, add 1 cup of rice, turn down heat to low, cover and cook for 15 minutes until water is absorbed. Fluff with a fork.
  • Assemble the bowls with rice on the bottom, then the tofu, then topped with the mango salsa. Feel free to garnish with sesame seeds and a fresh squeezed lime juice.
