Ingredients

For the stir-fry:

14 oz (400g) firm tofu, drained and cubed
1 cup broccoli florets
1 cup sliced bell peppers (use colorful ones)
1 cup sliced zucchini
1 cup sliced mushrooms
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon grated ginger
2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
1 tablespoon sesame oil (or olive oil)
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 tablespoon sesame seeds (optional)
Salt and pepper to taste

For the sauce:

1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 teaspoon chili paste (adjust to your spice preference)
1 teaspoon erythritol or stevia (or any preferred sugar substitute)

Directions

In a small bowl, mix together the ingredients for the sauce: soy sauce, rice vinegar, chili paste, and sweetener. Set aside.
In a non-stick skillet or wok, heat 1 tablespoon of sesame oil over medium-high heat.
Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the skillet. Stir-fry for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the cubed tofu to the skillet and cook until lightly browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes.
Add the broccoli, bell peppers, zucchini, and mushrooms to the skillet. Stir-fry for an additional 5-7 minutes or until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
Pour the sauce over the tofu and vegetables in the skillet. Toss everything together to coat the tofu and vegetables evenly with the sauce. Cook for another 1-2 minutes to let the flavors meld.
Season with salt and pepper to taste. If you like, sprinkle sesame seeds over the stir-fry for extra flavor and crunch.
Divide the tofu and vegetable stir-fry into two servings and serve immediately.
