Instructions

  • Start by frying the tofu. Remove the tofu from the box and pat it dry with a paper towel. Slice it into bite size pieces. Heat a skillet on medium heat and add the oil. Add the tofu and fry for 10 minutes, flip and then fry for another 10 minutes. Remove from heat.
  • While the tofu is cooking make the sauce. To do this add the coconut sugar, ketchup, tamari, white vinegar, and granulated garlic to a bowl and whisk. Set aside.
  • Make the cauliflower rice by adding the oil and pineapple juice to a large skillet or wok. Add the frozen cauliflower rice and sauté for 12 minutes, stirring every 2 minutes. Once it is done remove it from the pan and set aside.
  • Now make the stir fry portion by adding the oil to the skillet or wok and heat on medium heat. Add the garlic, bell pepper, and onion. Sauté for 6 minutes stirring every 2 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium/low and add the pineapple. Allow the pineapple to cook for 4 minutes, then add the tofu and sweet and sour sauce. Stir to combine and heat for 3-4 more minutes.
  • Serve over the cauliflower rice.
