Ingredients:
- 1 package of firm, low-fat tofu
- 1 1/2T of minced garlic
- 1/2 cup of white onions
- 3/4 cups of low-sodium soy sauce
- 2T of rice vinegar
- 1/4 cup of water
- fresh basil (can substitute with dried basil)
- chili pepper spice
- 2 1/2 cups of brown rice

Drain and dice tofu. Place in a large bowl and marinade in soy sauce for at least 1 hour. Bring brown rice to a bowl and cook according to directions on package. In a medium saucepan, cook onions and minced garlic on medium-high in 1/4 cup of soy sauce and 2T of rice vinegar; add approx. 1/4 cup of water to prevent burning. Cook until onions are tender. Add tofu (and the marinade sauce) to saucepan and lower the heat to medium. Let simmer for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add fresh basil and chili pepper. After draining brown rice, place in a bowl and cover with the tofu basil mixture. Serves 2.
