Spinach, Tofu & Sesame Stir-fry

I've been trying to include more tofu in my diet and explore new recipes. This has been my favorite so far. It's SUPER healthy and has a nice little spicy kick. (you can control the spice)
It's fast easy and best served with brown rice. It makes our mouths happy! :)




1 Tbs Canola Oil
1/2 pound tofu, cut in small dice
1 Large garlic clove, minced
1tsp grated or minced fresh ginger
1/4 tsp red chili flakes
soy sauce to taste
1 6oz bag of baby spinach, rinsed
2 Tbs toasted sesame seeds
1 tsp sesame oil

1. Heat the canola oil over medium-high heat in a large nonstick skillet or wok, and add the tofu. Stir-fry until the tofu is golden brown, add the garlic and ginger. Cook, stirring, until fragrant, about one minute, add soy sauce to taste. Add the spinach and stir-fry until the spinach wilts, about one minute. Stir in the sesame seeds, and add more soy sauce to taste. Remove from heat

2. Using tongs, transfer the spinach and tofu mixture to a serving bowl. Leaving the liquid behind in the pan/wok. Drizzle with the sesame oil, and add more soy sauce as desired. Serve with rice or other grains, or noodles. You may also use it as a filling for whole wheat pita bread.

Variation: Once cooked, finely chop the tofu and spinach and use as a filling for spring rolls or wontons.
