Tofu and Bok Choy Rice Bowl
This is a fast, no-fuss dinner bowl that leans on a few simple ingredients: microwave rice, firm tofu, and bagged baby bok choy. Everything cooks in one pan while the rice warms in the microwave, so it comes together in well under 30 minutes. A drizzle of soy sauce and a splash of sesame oil at the end give it plenty of flavor without any homemade sauce.

- 14 ozfirm tofu, drained and cubed, from one block
- 2 headsbaby bok choy, halved or roughly chopped

Method
- Heat the vegetable oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add the tofu cubes and cook, turning occasionally, until golden on a few sides, about 5 minutes.

- While the bok choy steams, microwave the rice packets according to the package instructions until hot. 1:30
- Divide the warm rice between two bowls, then top each with the tofu and bok choy.
