It was February 2, about a full month had past and I was into the new year, 2014. With each new year, I set the year with goals, things I want to accomplish, an on-going list of things I need to do. . mostly busy stuff that’s important but not life threatening.
My dear friend Victoria had purchased a devotional book for me to start in 2013 (which I read in its entirety last year) and I was going to start reading 
Because we’re raising money for children to be fed a daily meal at school, our recipe theme is LUNCH.
I feel silly posting a recipe here but since we are being asked to do this, I am posting one of my kids’ favorites. Pan fried Tofu over brown rice.
This has been on the blog before so it’s nothing new. . but it’s simple and quick.
Pan Fried Tofu Over Brown Rice
Ingredients
- One 14 ounce package firm tofu drained, rinsed and patted dry with paper towels and cut into ½-inch thick slices; you can also cut into triangles
- 1-2 tablespoons sesame oil
- 2 teaspoons low sodium soy sauce
- sesame seeds
- diced green onions if desired for garnish
- serve over brown rice
Instructions
- Using a large non-stick pan, over medium-high heat, add the sesame oil and after a minute or two, carefully place the tofu slices into the pan. Sear each side for about 2-3 minutes, or until golden and lightly browned. Drizzle on the soy sauce and after about a minute, remove from the pan. Alternatively, you can drizzle on the soy sauce when the tofu is already sitting on the rice.
- Serve on top of brown or white steamed rice. Garnish with sesame seeds and diced green onions.
Our goal is to raise $5,000. The funding will provide a daily, nourishing meal to 100 schoolchildren for an entire year. Just $10 can feed a child their only meal of the day.
If this post has moved you in any way, please DONATE. We’re not asking for a lot here. Donate $10 if that’s all you can give.
Feed a child. Nourish a mind. Children who don’t have enough to eat don’t have the capacity to work towards a proper education. You are one person but your donation can and will help a child.
Thank you for reading.
