• Ready In: 15 mins
• Serves: 4

Ingredients

• 5  tablespoons water
• 4  tablespoons  smooth  natural-style peanut butter
• 1  tablespoon rice vinegar
• 2  teaspoons reduced sodium soy sauce
• 2  teaspoons honey
• 2  teaspoons  minced ginger
• 2  garlic cloves, minced
• 14  ounces extra firm tofu
• 2  teaspoons extra virgin olive oil
• 4  cups  Baby Spinach
• 1 1⁄2 cups  sliced mushrooms
• 4  scallions, sliced

Directions

1. To prepare sauce: Whisk water, peanut butter, rice vinegar (or white vinegar), soy sauce, honey, ginger and garlic in a small bowl.
2. To prepare tofu: Drain and rinse tofu; pat dry. Slice the block crosswise into eight 1/2-inch-thick slabs. Coarsely crumble each slice into smaller, uneven pieces.
3. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over high heat. Add tofu and cook in a single layer, without stirring, until the pieces begin to turn golden brown on the bottom, about 5 minutes. Then gently stir and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until all sides are golden brown, 5 to 7 minutes more.
4. Add spinach, mushrooms, scallions and the peanut sauce and cook, stirring, until the vegetables are just cooked, 1 to 2 minutes more.
