I am sooooo behind on the food blogging! Hopefully our recipes will end up here soon :)

Dave and I had this meal this evening....it was easy and tasty!

Ingredients
1/3 cup honey
1/3 cup thinly sliced scallions
2 tbsp + 3 tbsp soy sauce, divided
2 tsp toasted sesame seeds
1 tbs minced garlic
3/4 tsp + 1/4 tsp ground ginger, divided
1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
1 block extra firm tofu, pressed and sliced widthwise
 tbsp olive oil
1 squash, seeded and diced
1 lb green beans
1 bell pepper, diced

Instructions

1. Mix the honey, scallions, soy sauce, sesame seeds, garlic, onions, ginger, and red pepper flakes in a small bowl until well blended.  Place tofu on a baking pan lined with parchment paper.  Spoon honey mixture evenly over the tofu.  Reserve the extra honey mixture.
2. Bake the tofu at 375 for 20 minutes.
3. While the tofu is cooking, in a large pot or saucepan heat olive oil.  Add in the squash, green beans, bell pepper, 2 tbsp water, ground ginger (or 1 tbs minced fresh) and 3 tbsp soy sauce.  Simmer on low until squash is tender, 20-30 minutes, stirring frequently.  Pour the extra honey mixture over the squash. Toss to combine.
4. Serve the braised vegetables with the baked tofu.
