Spicy Tofu Noodles Meal Prep

Step 1

Press tofu - Remove tofu from package, draining extra liquid. Sandwich the tofu between two paper towels on a plate. Top with a second plate and place a heavy object, such as a 28 oz can, on top. Press for at least 30 minutes to remove extra liquid.

Step 2

Cook tofu - When the time is up, discard the paper towels and cut the tofu into ½ inch cubes. Toss in olive oil and salt and pepper, and sautee for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tofu is lightly golden. Set aside to cool.

Step 3

Pasta- Cook pasta according to package directions. Drain, cool slightly, then divide between meal prep containers.

Step 4

Spiralize zucchini - Use a spiralizer to create zucchini noodles. Do not cook.

Step 5

Sauce - Shake together sauce and portion out into small containers (roughly 1.5 tablespoons per portion).

Step 6

Portion- Divide the tofu, spaghetti, zucchini noodles between four 2-cup capacity meal prep containers, garnishing with sesame seeds, green onions and red pepper flakes if desired.
