Simple and quick! I love how colorful it is! 😍
Nah, this dish is just bland. Think I’ll stick to meat dishes.
I used to think tofu was bland too, but this stir fry changed my mind! The soy sauce and sesame oil really bring it to life. Give it another shot!
Honestly, tofu is just a vehicle for flavor. If you don’t season it enough, it’s gonna taste bland. Maybe try adding more spices next time?
This recipe is a lifesaver! Tofu stir fry has become my go-to dish. Easy to make and healthy! 🍽️
Just made this and it was too salty for me. Used low sodium soy sauce but still!
Delish! Wasn’t so sure about the sesame oil at first but it really made it special.
Really? I thought it was too strong. Could’ve done without the sesame oil for my taste.
I totally agree! The sesame oil adds a nice flavor. Gonna make this again soon!
Dude! This tofu thing is what I’ve been looking for! Just don’t forget to press the tofu!
I don’t like tofu at all, but my wife loved this. I guess it’s good for people who like it, lol.
Tofu can be really hit or miss! I used to hate it too, but I found that the way it’s cooked makes a big difference. This stir fry does look tasty, though!
Nice balance of veggies. I used whatever I had in the fridge and it still turned out great! Just a tip for others.
This was so good! I added some chili flakes for a kick, and it was perfect. Will make again!
Too much veggies for me. Next time I’ll skip the broccoli and add chicken instead.
This is awesome! I’ve never made tofu before and was surprised how good it turned out! Thanks for sharing!
I’m so glad you liked it! Tofu can be tricky, but it’s such a versatile ingredient. What veggies did you decide to add?
It was okay, but the tofu got too mushy for my taste. I think I cooked it too long. Any tips?
Honestly, I found it kinda bland. Maybe it’s just me? I added some hot sauce but still wasn’t feeling it.
So good! My whole family loved it. I added some noodles and it was a huge hit. Will definitely make again!
So happy to hear that! Adding noodles is a great idea! It sounds like you made it even better. 🤗
Good recipe, but I think I prefer my stir fry with chicken. Tofu’s not for everyone!
Tofu can be great, but chicken has that extra flavor! I’m with you on that one.
I dunno, I think tofu can really soak up the sauce and tastes nice if you cook it right! But hey, chicken is good too.
Simple and fast! I’m not a big cook, but I managed this perfectly. Thanks!
Really? I tried it and the tofu got all mushy. Maybe I did something wrong? 😕
I love how easy this is! I’m not great at cooking either, but this recipe worked out for me too! 😋
Yum! This is the best stir fry I’ve ever made. I added some cashews and it was perfect.
Cashews sound great! I bet they add a nice crunch. Can’t wait to try this! 😊
Seems kinda healthy, but I prefer meat in my stir fries. Not really my thing.
Nah, tofu just ain’t the same as meat. This recipe sounds weird to me. I think I’ll stick with beef stir fry.
I totally get that! Meat does add a different flavor. Have you tried adding chicken or shrimp instead?
Where’s the spice? Needs more kick, I added jalapeños but it still dulled my taste buds.
I tried it, but the tofu just wouldn’t get crispy. Maybe I did something wrong? 🤔
Tofu?? Nah, I don’t think this is for me. Not sure how people eat it!
delish! quick and easy, will be making again!
I’m glad you liked it! It’s super versatile too. Did you add any other veggies?
I just used whatever veggies I had, turned out good! Thanks for the recipe.
Easy recipe, but I didn’t have broccoli. Used some frozen mixed veggies instead. Still turned out okay!
