We're doing tofu tonight! Tofu with black bean and garlic sauce, fried brown rice, and steamed broccoli.... I'm not sure it's as healthy as it sounds. :-)
You are such the NT girl, soaking your beans! Have you ever tried sprouting them? I think it's so much fun to do and it's kind of like a mini science experiment. I know...I'm a little weird. ;)
The recipe looks yummy, too!
Shady Lady, I'm trying with the NT, I believe it pretty fully. But I just bought a sprouter (got it for $2) and i've yet to use it. I'll probably use it soon. With all the hubbub from this summer some things have put on the back burner, that was one of the things. But soon! thx for sharing, you're not weird-we're similar.
A sprouter, huh? I've never heard of that. I use quart size mason jars (Ball/Kerr) the ring and I found some screens online...somewhere. I'm interested in hearing about your sprouter and how it goes!
Mmmm sounds good. :)
This sounded soo yummy that I had to start on a modified version immediately (canned black beans instead of soaked). Needless to say, this doesn't go well with the dinner I had planned (ham & scalloped potatoes), but Nate can have his meal and I will have mine. :)
