Ingredients:
-
Tofu:
- 12 ounces extra firm tofu
- 1/2 cup soy sauce
- 1/4 cup rice vinegar
- 2 tablespoons agave
- 1 clove garlic, minced
-
Bowls:
- Rice (white or brown)

- Sesame seeds
- Greens (such as microgreens)
- Pickled ginger
- Soy sauce and wasabi for topping
- Sriracha and mayo for the spicy mayo drizzle
Instructions:
-
Prepare the Tofu:
- Press the tofu to remove excess moisture. Cut it into small cubes.
- Marinate the tofu cubes in soy sauce, rice vinegar, agave, and minced garlic while you prepare the vegetables and other ingredients.
-
Prepare the Bowls:
- Get your veggies, rice, and toppings ready.
-
Cook the Tofu:
- Heat a bit of oil in a skillet over medium heat.
- Drain the excess marinade from the tofu. Add the tofu to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally to prevent it from over-browning.
- Once the tofu is nicely browned, it’s ready to be added to your bowls.
-
Assemble the Bowls:
- Divide the cooked rice among the bowls.
- Add the browned tofu and your choice of veggies.
- Top each bowl with a sprinkle of sesame seeds, a dollop of spicy mayo, and some pickled ginger.
Notes:
- For a vegan version, replace the mayo with a vegan-approved substitute like store-bought vegan mayo or a homemade version made from tofu.
This dish is perfect for a quick, nutritious dinner and brings the flavors of sushi right to your table without the fuss. Enjoy your meal!
