Meal 1: Fried Rice Veggie Kaboom!, Tofu w/ Green Garlic.

·        Heat a saute pan with a little oil in it to almost smoking.  Non-stick and well seasoned cast iron are great. When hot add the rice, in batched to prevent crowding the pan.  Stir and fry until heated and turn out into a serving dish.

·        Allow the veggies to drain a bit if watery.  Get the pan hot again and add the vegetables to the pan.  Stir fry briefly to heat through and serve them atop the rice.  Dress with a little soy sauce to season.  featured vegetables:  Chinese broccoli, snap peas, garlic scapes, shredded carrot, kohlrabi, turnip, cilantro.

·        The tofu salad is good at room temp.  You can also stir fry it briefly to warm through.
