Easy Tofu Bowls
Using my recipe for crispy soy garlic tofu, you can make these super easy and delicious tofu bowls! Basically, it’s rice topped with tofu and all different sorts of vegetables.
This recipe is super customizable, you can pick your own various pickled and fresh vegetables to put on top. In this version, I use teriyaki cucumbers, pickled carrots, broccoli, and edamame. I also love adding cabbage (kimchi is a great option)!
Not only is this bowl packed with flavor, but it’s nutritious and vegan.
