For this week's Monday Motivation we thought we would put together some of our favorite recipes from a few of our faculty members here at  Rise Together Today.

Dr. Mark Hymans Skillet Tofu with Broccoli and Peppers

This is a tasty and super-easy meal from Dr. Hyman's new cookbook Food the Cookbook that can be on the table in less than 20 minutes. You can easily use 1 pound of chicken or beef in place of the tofu as well as different vegetables depending on what’s available and in season.

Ingredients

2 teaspoons sesame oil
1 large red bell pepper, stemmed, seeded, and julienned
2 large broccoli heads (about 1 pound total), cut into small florets
1⁄2-inch piece fresh ginger, peeled and minced
1 pound non-GMO firm tofu, drained and crumbled
2 tablespoons wheat-free tamari
1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
1⁄2 cup vegetable broth or filtered water
1 tablespoon arrowroot
2 tablespoons of filtered water
1 tablespoon white sesame seeds
1⁄4 cup loosely packed cilantro leaves, roughly chopped
