Last night I decided to cook the quickest thing I had planned so there was time for me to lick on my new MacBook. The upside of getting my house burglarized, I suppose.
I mostly followed the recipe for Soba Noodles with Asian Greens and Slivers of Tofu from Quick Fix Vegetarian. Okay, so those aren’t soba noodles. Still, they’re Asian. The greens part is Chinese Broccoli, Gai Lan, I think. It’s kind of similar to rapini or broccoli rabe. Think really skinny broccoli that’s almost all leaf with little bitty florettes. Also, instead of baked Asian tofu, I used regular firm tofu that I browned up in a pan with a garlic clove and a sprinkle of tamari. Oh yeah, and I added half a red bell pepper. If you’ve cooked a bunch of stir fry type dishes, you know that the recipe is mostly just a suggestion. The more the make, the more comfortable you’ll be subbing in whatever you feel like. I ended up adding a lot more tamari than it called for, and then sprinked salt on top. I can be a salt fiend though. Really tasty though and had a high veg/noodle ratio so it was probably reasonably healthy as well.

Looks yummy!
The noodles look great, but when were you burglarized??!!
oh, it happened, tuesday i think, while i was at work. took my computer and my new nikon d-40 camera.
at least none of the animals got out or hurt.
Ugh. Do you live in Cabbagetown/Reynoldstown? It’s getting really bad again. My boyfriend was mugged on Monday. That is wonderful that the animals weren’t harmed though!
not far…near EAV. yeah, another house on my street got hit the same day. that sucks about your bf. i’ve heard more stories like that. people are getting desperate.
I love stir frys because they are so flexible. yours looks delish. wouldn’t have know they were soba noodles
