Pineapple Tofu Stuffed Green Peppers




First, my apologies that I have been fairly sparse in posting as of late. Somewhere between a full-time job, an internship, and a hobby that I try to practice as much as possible I haven't been good about posting lately. I don't know if anyone noticed (I am up to 6 followers now!!!! :-D ), but if you did please note that you actually get two recipes today, and hopefully a few more coming in the next few days.

This recipe is actually very simple to make, so don't be daunted by the stuffing process.




Pineapple-Tofu Stuffed Green Peppers


Another tofu recipe….

Ingredients:


Non-stick cooking spray
1 container extra firm tofu
¼ cup diced onions
4 cloves garlic minced
1 tsp ground ginger
2 green bell peppers
¼ cup diced frozen pineapple

Apparatus:

Spatula
Knife
Pan
Casserole Dish

Process:

1)Spray pan with cooking spray.
2)Drain tofu and cut into cubes.
3)Place tofu, onions, garlic, and ginger in pan and sauté for about 8 minutes.
4)While the tofu mixture is sautéing, wash the green bell peppers and carefully cut out the stem and remove the seeds.
5)Spray the casserole dish with the cooking spray and place the bell peppers in the dish.
6)When the tofu mixture is done, mix the pineapple in, and then place the mixture inside the bell peppers.
7)Put the casserole dish in the oven and cook on 400 degrees F. Remove when bell peppers become soft (approximately 20-25 minutes) and enjoy!


*Notes* This meal is low-carb and incredibly high in vitamin C.
