Would love to enter this next recipe and pictures for this week's Fruits & Veggies Monday by @lenasveganliving 😊
The fruits and veggies (plus tofu) aren't from my garden but grocery store though 😂 I do gardening and know how to make my own tofu, but this year our garden only produce regular size tomatoes, pineapple is still growing, didn't plant spinach nor cauliflower, and tofu is so convinient to just grab it from the store 😂
We made grilled kabobs of fruits, veggies and tofu that we served with spinach rice. The boys quite like them. My 7 yo thought the baby carrots taste a little like hotdog. So that gives me idea to maybe use the same marinade I use below to make carrot-dog sometime.
Spinach Rice (my boys love it!)
1 c rice
1/2 c white quinoa
1 heaping tbsp ground flax
Vegeta powder to taste
1 handful fresh spinach, chop
Rinse rice and quinoa
Place and cook everything into rice cooker with enough water
Grilled Kabobs
1 block of extra firm tofu, cubed, marinate for a couple of hours in:
2 tbsp kecap manis (Indonesian sweet soy sauce)
1 tbsp Magi liquid seasoning
A couple drops of liquid smoke
3 drops of vegan Worcester sauce (homemade or storebought)
1/2-1 tsp sesame oil
Tomato cherries
Fresh pineapple, cubed
A handful of baby carrots
Cauliflower florets
In a bowl, place baby carrots, cover with cling plastic wrap and micro for 1-2 mins
While microwaving, prepare the same marinade as above
Once carrots are microwaved, marinate immediately along with cauliflower
Grill for 7-10 mins
