Tsaos Tofu And Broccoli Lite Recipe


Tsaos Tofu And Broccoli Lite Recipe
Delicious, insanely easy and a great vegetarian main dish that's both sweet and spicy. Use regular sugar for the Splenda if you don't care for it, my family contains diabetics so we use it.

This is indeed very healthy, maybe too healthy for the likes of me lol I love my indiscretions in the kitchen too too much ;) I imagine this would taste pretty good though judging by the ingredients. Thanks for sharing.


Sounds tasty but why would you serve it over rice?


Why not? it makes it a complete meal and the rice soaks up the sauce. you caqn substitute anything you wish


Do you know if using a different sugar substitute would alter the taste too much? or for the worse?


It would depend on what you use, just make sure it would equal 2 tbsp of sugar (like Splenda does).
