Orange Sauce

  • zest of 1 orange
  • 1 navel orange juiced
  • ¼ cup vegetable broth

Instructions
 

  • First, make your brown rice, this will take the longest (you can cut this time by doing freezer rice or white)
  • Press your tofu, then rip into chunks to achieve a chewier texture
  • Coat the tofu with cornstarch and soy sauce then put in the air fryer at 400F for 15 minutes, shaking ½ way. If you don’t have an air fryer, cook in the oven for 25 min at 400F flipping ½ way
  • Next, chop your veggies and sauté in a pan on medium heat with a bit of avocado oil for 6-9 minutes
  • Make your sauce by combining all of the ingredients in a bowl then pour into a pan on medium-high heat. Stir and let it thicken for 2-3 minutes
  • Dice your toppings and set aside
  • Add your tofu to the orange sauce pan and combine. To make your bowl, add rice and veggies then top with your coated crispy tofu and more orange sauce
  • Storage: store in an air tight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Store your toppings separately
