His latest recipe intrigued me because of its flexibility. You can tailor it to your family's tastes by varying the ingredients and amounts of seasonings. And it only uses one pan, a very important consideration for cooks like me with no dishwasher. I was able to prepare it and cook it in the time that it took to cook the rice. Don't you just love it when everything finishes cooking at once? I loved it made with ground turkey and kale. I'll definitely be trying his suggested variations also.
Verdict: Yum! This one's a keeper.
1 12 to 16 oz container tofu, drained (reserve liquid)
1 lb ground turkey (may substitute beef, lamb, chicken or pork or omit if vegetarian)
1 tablespoon cooking oil
1 medium onion - diced
1 teaspoon miso paste (omit if you can't get it or don't like it)
Handful of kale (or greens of your choice such as mustard, spinach, green onions, etc.) rough chopped
