For the Peanut Sauce

  • 5 tbsp peanut butter
  • 4 tbsp tamari
  • 2-3 tbsp maple syrup
  • 2 tbsp lime juice
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 1-2 tsp sriracha
  • 1 tsp minced ginger

For the Stirfry

  • 14 oz extra firm tofu
  • 8 oz lion's mane mushrooms
  • 2 carrots
  • 2 yellow squash
  • 1 red bell pepper
  • 2 tbsp sesame oil, separated
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 12 oz bag of cauliflower rice
  • 2 green onions

Instructions
 

For the Peanut Sauce

  • Add all ingredients into a bowl and whisk together well. Taste and adjust as needed. I typically end up with 3 tbsp of maple syrup and 2 tsp of sriracha, but definitely start with less, taste, and adjust to your preferences!

For the Lion's Mane Stirfry

  • Drain the tofu, put into a press (or wrap in towels and place under your heaviest books) for at least 10 minutes. Once most of the water is drained, cut the tofu into approximately 1" squares and set aside.
  • Meanwhile, clean and chop the veggies into approximately 1/4" slices. Clean and loosely chop the mushrooms. Slice the green onions and set aside.
  • Heat a large saute pan and add a bit of sesame oil. Add the veggies (hold on the mushrooms for a sec and do not add the green onions) and saute for about 10 minutes, until they start to soften and darken.
  • Add the mushrooms and saute for 15 more minutes, stirring often, until the veggies and mushrooms are browned.
  • Meanwhile, heat another large saute pan and add about a tablespoon of sesame oil. Top the pan with the tofu, turning it immediately so both sides are covered with oil. Then sprinkle with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
  • Saute the tofu for 5 minutes, then turn and cook a final 3-4 minutes, until both sides are browned.
  • Make your cauliflower rice according to package directions. This typically takes about 5-7 minutes to heat up, so it's good to do this as the last step.
  • Now, plate your food! In large bowls, layer the cauliflower rice, then the veggie mixture, then the tofu, and top with peanut sauce and your green onions.
  • Enjoy immediately!
