  3. In clean ceramic nonstick pan, add tsp of coconut oil and saute garlic and ginger until golden brown. Add tofu and veggies and saute for 2 minutes. Add sauce and put on low simmer, stirring occasionally onion is cooked to your liking (my huband likes his onions raw, but I like mine softer and hence sweeter).  Pour over 1/2 cup of brown rice.
