Simply delicious. I usually only buy broccoli in the summer when it is available freshly picked at the farmer’s market.
Mix 1/4 cup toasted sesame oil, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, and crushed red pepper flakes (I prefer to use Aleppo pepper available at www.savoryspiceshop.com.
Toss with 2 cups of raw, rinsed broccoli. Allow it to marinate for 30 minutes and serve.
BBQ Tofu
This is some tasty tofu! It is served with Asian marinated broccoli (fresh from the farmer’s market) and whole wheat corn cakes.
Follow my recipe for Best BBQ Sauce. In a bowl, add 1/2-2/3 cup BBQ sauce, 1/2 cup water, and 1/4 cup sesame oil. Add the frozen, thawed, pressed, and sliced tofu (follow my Asian Baked Tofu recipe for tofu prep instructions).
Carefully coat the tofu and allow it to soak up the sauce for 30 minutes or so. Grill it for 4-5 minutes on each side. Serve with extra sauce and enjoy.

This is by far my favorite BBQ sauce I’ve ever made. It is a little spicy and has lots of flavor. Also, my measurements are all approximate.
Ingredients:
- 1/4 cup molasses
- 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
- 1 small can tomato paste
- 1-2 tsp Chinese chili paste (add more if you like it really hot)
- 2 TB Worcestershire sauce
- 1 TB soy sauce
- 4 TB cider vinegar
- fresh ground black pepper
- pinch of sea salt
- 1 TB garlic powder
- 1 TB onion powder
- 1/2 TB dried shallots
Mix it all together. Refrigerate any extra sauce and use within a few days.
Coffee, Banana, Rice Milk Shake
I promise… this is delicious.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup coffee (hot, warm, or cold)
- 1 very ripe banana
- 1/2 cup Rice Milk (I prefer to make my own, but the 365 brand vanilla flavor or plain will work also)
- cinnamon
Combine the coffee, banana, and rice milk a blender or, if you are so fortunate, a Vita-Mix. Blend. Pour into a glass and sprinkle with cinnamon. It will naturally get frothy on top. Enjoy.
I don’t drink milk, but I’m sure this will also work with the milk of your choice.
