Sunshine and Some Scrumptiousness

JUST LOOK AT THIS:

FINALLY!!!

FINALLY!!!

I walked out of work today into warm sunshine, without a jacket on, a warm breeze blowing… this kind of weather just puts me into a good mood instantaneously! I know that some of you would be FREEZING in this weather, but this is just glorious. We had dozens upon dozens of days below freezing this year… and I feel almost like I’ve been re-born. Adam and I are actually going to go get some ice cream (ok, fat free fro-yo) and sit outside just to enjoy it.

I picked up some organic Nasoya tofu yesterday, and decided to bake it up GC Style with some DELICIOUS rice noodles and broccoli. First, I pan-roasted my broccoli. This is a very easy process with fresh broccoli! Just heat a pan on the stovetop, toss the broccoli in, and stir it a few times unti its cooked and browned. I then boiled some Thai rice stick noodles, tossed them in with the broccoli, and stirred in this sauce:

I swear, I'm addicted to this stuff!

I swear, I'm addicted to this stuff!

Spicy Soy Ginger Sauce

Ingredients

1 Tbsp. dark sesame oil

2-3 Tbsp. dark soy sauce

1/2 tsp. ground ginger

1 tsp. sweetener

1/4 tsp. sriracha

1/2 tsp. garlic powder

Directions

Mix ingredients thoroughly and use in Asian-style noodle or meat dishes instead of, or in addition to soy sauce.

It turns out that this sauce is almost identical to what I put on my GC tofu… I added the garlic for the noodles though. It was all quite simple and quite delicious. I’m debating a second helping of noodles… calories don’t count when eaten outside, right?

QOTD: I’ve been asked by Lindsay at Love Of Oats to do a second guest post! My first one is here, if you didn’t see it originally. Anyway, my question is: what would you like to see me write about?

Have an excellent night, I’m off to enjoy the last hour of sunshine!

xoxo,
