Grilled Tofu, stir fried baby broccoli and three mushrooms cooked in Annie Chuns Stir Fry Sauce over Annie Chuns Organic Chow Mein
That’s a mouthful, literally. I made dinner for Claudio before Claudio had to return to work in New England. I tried to do something different and it worked out well. I love grilling tofu and I think I’ve become good at it. First I marinated the tofu in Annie Chun’s Stir Fry sauce. Not too much, just enough of the sauce to enhance the tofu’s flavor with garlic, onion, sugar cane and sesame from the sauce. The rich really works well with a firm block of tofu.
I had the tofu grilling up while I chopped the mushrooms and baby broccoli. Then, I threw the chopped mixture into the pan with a small amount of the Annie’s Sauce. While everything cooked up slowly, I followed the easy to follow instructions for the Annie Chun’s Organic Chow Mein.
When the noodles were done, I added more sauce before combining the veggies.
I really enjoyed the dish. It had a nutty/woodsy flavor from the shitake, baby portabellos and oyster mushrooms. The tofu, from Trader Joe’s, is organic also and very cheap at $.99! The chow mein was perfect if you follow the directions.
Everyone really like the food. I thought overall, it was excellent and I’m excited about trying it again.
I have some ideas for the future of what to add, but I guess you’ll have to wait to find out.
One of my concerns was the sodium. There is a large amount in the noodles. Organic does not always mean healthy, so be careful and take note. There is a good amount of protein though!

Oh man. I'd love to try one of those Annie Chun's noodle packets. Unfortunately, the last one I bought–at Fresh & Easy–had bugs in it. And it wasn't even old. *sob*
