These Hawaiian BBQ Tofu Bowls recipe is in fact really simple and it will be on your bowl under one-hour. All you need to make it just cook your own grain, pan-fry tofu and saute a few veggies.
I utilized my new Hawaiian fruit as the inspiration for this Hawaiian BBQ Tofu Bowls! You understand a recipe is a winner once you just finished eating it and you are already dreaming about the next time you have to consume it. It has got a little bit of salty, sweet, salty, crispy.
The very first thing that you need to do is press on your tofu. You need to press all of the water outside for approximately 20 minutes!
Utilize a tofu press should you’ve got one. Then simply marinate it into your favourite BBQ sauce and pan fry till it is crispy and nice on the surface!
I used quinoa as the base grain for my own bowl, but I guess brown rice or some other whole grain would work nicely here, also. Next from the assembly line is veggies. I sauteed zucchini and bell peppers, then slice some red-onion and then toss those on there, also.
For the pineapple, I sliced it thin & grilled it in my skillet for a few minute on each side, just for a little extra something. This is completely optional however! When you are ready to construct your dishes, add the vegetables, tofu, quinoa, pineapple, as well as some other toppings you desire.
