3Tbspoil
1Tbspbutter
2cupsbroccolifresh or frozen

1cupsnap peas
1cupfrozen edamame

1/3cupteriyaki sauce
2Tbspsoy sauce
1tspminced ginger optional
1 tsp sesame seedsoptional
Instructions
Start pressing tofu 15min-2 hrs before preparing the rest of the meal. The longer you can do this, the more moisture will release from the tofu (Note 1)
Add 1 Tbsp oil and butter to non-stick pan on medium heat. After heated, add tofu and cook for about 10 minutes, turning as tofu cooks until golden brown. Remove from heat. Add 2 Tbsp teriyaki sauce and mix.
While the tofu is cooking, add remaining oil (2 Tbsp) to a separate large pan. After heated, add broccoli, red pepper, snap peas, and edamame. Cook for a few minute until softened, then add 1/4 cup water and yakisoba noodles to the pan. Cover and cook for about 5 minutes.
Add remaining teriyaki sauce, soy sauce, and minced ginger to skillet. Stir. Add tofu. Top with sesame seeds if desired and enjoy!
Notes
Pressing tofu for longer will release more moisture, creating a more crispy tofu when sauteed. Press as a block, then slice into 3 sheets and press again.
