We have been in kind of a food rut. I complained to my wife and she " suggested "

that I find new recipes. Here is one of our standbys:

 

Serve over broccoli:

 

Pasta and Tofu with Finger-Licking Peanut Sauce

1/2 cup vegetable broth

1/4 cup chunky or smooth peanut butter

1/4 cup soy sauce

3 tablespoons brown sugar

2 tablespoons rice vinegar or apple cider vinegar

2 teaspoons grated peeled fresh ginger

2 teaspoons chile paste with garlic (add to taste)

4 garlic cloves, minced

8 ounces uncooked whole wheat angel hair

1 pound firm tofu, drained and cubed (optional)

1 cup (2-inch) sliced green onions

1 cup shredded carrot

Combine first 8 ingredients in a small saucepan. Cook over medium heat 5 minutes

or until smooth, stirring frequently (this can also be done in the microwave;

use a tempered glass bowl, like pyrex, cook for 20 seconds, stir, repeat until

smooth). Remove from heat. Cook pasta in boiling water 8 minutes, omitting salt

and fat. Add tofu, onions, and carrot; drain. Place pasta mixture in a large

bowl. Add peanut butter mixture; toss gently.
