Directions

1. Pat tofu dry and wrap in a clean towel for 10 minutes to drain out excess water. After 10 minutes, unwrap and crumble with a fork and set aside.

2. While tofu is draining, prepare the sauce by whisking ingredients together in a small bowl and adding water to make the sauce easily pourable.

3. Warm a skillet over medium heat with 1 or 2 tablespoons olive oil. Saute diced potatoes until golden then set aside.

4. In the same skillet, fry onion and red pepper, season with salt and pepper and cook until softened, 5 minutes. Add spinach and cover to steam for 2 minutes. Add potatoes back to the skillet.

5. Move the veggies to one side of the pan and add tofu. Sauté for 2 minutes, then add the sauce to the tofu. Stir well to coat everything. Cook for another 2 or 3 minutes. Serve immediately. You can top with chopped cilantro if you like. Enjoy! ♡
