Ingredients
  

  • 1 c. quinoa
  • 1/2 white onion
  • 1/2 tsp. paprika
  • 1/2 tsp. cumin
  • 1/2 tsp. curry powder
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 3 medium carrots
  • 1 head broccoli
  • 8 oz. bella mushrooms
  • 1/2 bunch kale
  • 16 oz. firm tofu
  • 4 tbsp. nutritional yeast
  • 2 tbsp. sriracha

Instructions
 

  • Cook the quinoa according to package instructions.
  • Remove the tofu from the package and put in a tofu press or wrap with several towels and place under very heavy books for about 20 minutes.
  • While the quinoa is cooking, dice the onion and heat on medium in a large frying pan for a few minutes, stirring often.
  • In a small frying pan, heat 1/2 c. water with the paprika, cumin, and curry over medium low. Let the flavors meld for a few minutes, and then add the spices to the onion. Heat all ingredients together, adding more water if needed, for about 5 minutes.
  • Dice the carrots and broccoli, add to the onion mixture, and cook on medium-high heat for about 10 minutes.
  • Slice the mushrooms, add to the mixture, and cook for 5 minutes.
  • Break apart the tofu into small pieces over the pan. Chop the kale and add to the pan, and cook for about 5 more minutes, until the tofu is heated through and the kale is softened.
  • Sprinkle the nutritional yeast on top of the mixture, and stir well. Remove from heat.
  • Spoon about 1/2 c. of the quinoa into bowls, and add about 1 c. of the veggie mixture on top. Top with as much sriracha sauce as you like. Enjoy!

Notes

Note: I often don't add oil to the pans that I cook veggies in, because the veggies will release water when cooking. If you feel more comfortable adding oil, go for it.
Don't have sriracha sauce on hand? Sprinkle the dish with red pepper flakes or add sliced jalapenos for a little heat.
