  • 1/2 tbsp avocado oil
  • 1/4 cup yellow onion, finely diced
  • 1 clove of garlic, minced
  • 7 oz firm tofu, cubed

  1. First, prepare all of the veggies. Then cook pasta according to directions on box.
  2. While pasta is cooking, heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add avocado oil, onion, and garlic. Cook until fragrant, 30-60 seconds. 
  3. Stir in tofu, cabbage, and mushrooms. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.
