Buddha's Feast...

Ingredients:

3 tbsp low sodium soy sauce

1 tbsp dark sesame oil

1 tbsp rice vinegar

1 tsp sugar

1 pkg (14 ounce) water-packed extra firm tofu (drained and cut into 1inch cubes) I prefer fried tofu like you see below

5 cups broccoli florets

1/2 cup peeled broccoli stems (I omitted this)

2 tbsp canola oil

1 1/2 cups carrots (1/4 inch cut diagonally sliced)

1 cup snow peas, trimmed

1 can (14 ounce) whole baby corn, drained (I omitted this)

1 can (8 ounce) sliced water chestnuts, drained (I omitted this)

1 1/2 cup sliced green onions (I chopped mine)

1 tbsp grated peeled fresh ginger

2 garlic cloves, minced

1/2 cup vegetable broth

1 tbsp cornstarch

1/2 tsp salt

I added baby bok choy instead of the water chestnuts and corn...

My Verdict: Praiseworthy. I've made this dish 5 times already since finding it online. Its filling enough to enjoy alone or with rice.
