Turmeric-Ginger Tofu and Bok Choy Stir-Fry with Cashews
Golden turmeric-ginger tofu stir-fried with baby bok choy and toasted cashews, served over steamed rice for a quick weeknight dinner.
Turmeric turns this quick stir-fry a warm golden color while fresh ginger and garlic build the aromatic base. Cubes of tofu take on the turmeric-ginger marinade beautifully, and a few handfuls of baby bok choy wilt down in minutes alongside them.
Tofu is another well-known soy-based, phytoestrogen-rich food, and bok choy contributes its own calcium, both nutrients that come up often in conversations about menopause and midlife eating. Toasted cashews at the end add healthy fats and a satisfying crunch to balance the tender vegetables.
Serve over steamed rice or alongside soba noodles, and keep a bottle of low-sodium soy sauce nearby for anyone who wants an extra splash at the table.
Ingredients
