How to Prepare Peanut Noodle Protein Bowl [Vegan, Gluten-Free]

  1. Cook your noodles according to the package.
  2. Heat one tablespoon of oil in a non-stick skillet. Once heated, place your tofu in the skillet and brown for one to two minutes, each side.
  3. Combine all of the sauce ingredients in a small saucepan. Cook on medium for two to three minutes, stirring constantly.
  4. When the tofu is done, turn off the heat and remove from the heat. Add the noodles and sauce to the tofu and stir until the sauce is evenly distributed.
