My husband and I loved this dish! We are new to the world of tofu and were pleasantly surprised how good it was in this recipe. The recipe didn't specify how to cook the tofu so I marinated the tofu in some of the sauce, then sautéed it until it was browned. Then I removed it from the pan and followed the rest of the recipe, adding it back in at the end to warm. It turned out fantastic.

I did not have bean sprouts so I substituted shredded cabbage and julienne carrots. Also I used Trader Joes General Tsao sauce instead of soy sauce. It was excellent and very healthy.
