This Easy Tofu Lo Mein is a flavorful and nutritious vegetarian dish featuring crispy pan-fried tofu, sugar snap peas, and baby bella mushrooms tossed with protein-enriched spaghetti in a savory soy and sesame sauce.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 14 oz firm tofu
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 8 oz sugar snap peas
  • 16 oz sliced baby bella mushrooms
  • 10 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped fresh ginger
  • 1 box (16 oz) Barilla ProteinPLUS Spaghetti
  • Soy sauce, about 7 tablespoons (divided)
  • Sesame oil, about 5 tablespoons (divided)

Instructions

  1. Drain the tofu and place it between a kitchen towel. Put a heavy object on top and allow it to press for 30-40 minutes to remove excess moisture.
  2. After pressing, dice the tofu into small chunks. Toss the tofu pieces with 2 tablespoons of cornstarch until evenly coated.
  3. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 tablespoons of sesame oil and 2 tablespoons of soy sauce until it shimmers.
  4. Add the coated tofu pieces to the hot skillet. Cook for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and crispy.
  5. Remove the tofu from the skillet and set aside to keep warm.
  6. Begin boiling water and cook the Barilla ProteinPLUS spaghetti according to package instructions until al dente, then drain.
  7. In the same skillet, add 1 tablespoon of sesame oil over medium-high heat. Add the sugar snap peas, sliced mushrooms, minced garlic, and chopped ginger.
  8. Cook the vegetables for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until mushrooms release their liquid and peas remain tender-crisp.
  9. Return the crispy tofu to the skillet with the vegetables. Add the cooked spaghetti and toss to combine.
  10. Season the stir-fry with soy sauce and sesame oil to taste.
