Ingredients
- 14 oz. tofu (extra firm)
- 2 Tbsp cornstarch
- 2 Tbsp vegetable oil
- 1 red bell pepper, seeded and diced
- 1 green bell pepper, seeded and diced
- 1 C pineapple, diced

Instructions
Servings: 6
Drain the tofu and wrap in a clean towel or paper towels. Press the tofu for at least 15 minutes by adding weight to it. Once pressed, cut the tofu into 1-inch cubes and transfer to a mixing bowl. Add the cornstarch and 2 tablespoons San-J Tamari Soy Sauce. Toss to coat.
Heat the oil in a large skillet or wok over high heat until it starts to ripple. Add the tofu in a single layer in the skillet and let cook undisturbed for 60 seconds. Flip the tofu and continue cooking on all sides until the tofu is golden brown, about 6 minutes. Remove the tofu from the pan and reserve. Add the bell peppers, pineapple, and green onion, and cook, stirring constantly for 2 minutes. Add the quinoa and San-J Tamari Soy Sauce and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add the San-J Sweet & Tangy Sauce and cook, stirring, until heated through, about 3 minutes.
Note: Can be made the night before and stored, covered, in the refrigerator.
Serve cold or at room temperature with additional San-J Tamari Soy Sauce, if desired. Look for San-J Organic Tamari Travel Packs at a store near you!
