directions

  • Cut tofu into 1 inch slices. Poke each slice with a fork so that marinade can fully penetrate.
  • Place tofu into a bag or container.
  • Pour about 1/2 the bottle of jerk sauce over the tofu, or enough to cover the tofu completely.
  • Add half of the minced onions to the tofu and marinade.
  • Allow the tofu to sit for 30 minutes.
  • Boil the brown rice.
  • Put the rice into a large frying pan and add the pinto beans and the rest of the onions. Put on low heat.
  • Add pepper and salt to the rice and pinto beans.
  • Drain some of the sauce from the tofu. (DO NOT DRAIN MORE THAN HALF OF THE SAUCE.).
  • Add the rest of the tofu and sauce into another large pan on medium high heat.
  • Allow the tofu to cook for about 10 minutes.
  • Add to rice and beans.
  • Raise to medium heat.
  • Add garlic powder.
  • Add salt and pepper. (I did not put a measurement on these ingredients because you should add according to your taste for salt and pepper.).
  • Let it sit for about 7-8 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Serve!

  1. Not bad at all, and very good for you! To make this a quick weekday evening supper, I used up a can of organic brown rice and pinto beans, after first marinating the tofu for a while. I think if you like jerk seasonings you will like this. Thanks!
