PINEAPPLE FRIED RICE WITH TOFU
This is a sweet fried rice with a pleasing bite of ginger. Before you begin to stir-fry, cook rice if you don't have any left over, and have everything prepped and close at hand.

Steps:
- Cut the tofu into 1/2-inch cubes and place them in a bowl. Pour the soy sauce and sesame oil over the cubes and stir gently. Set aside.
- In a wok or large skillet, heat the vegetable oil. Add the garlic, ginger, and chili paste and stir-fry on medium heat for a minute. Add the peppers, celery, scallions, and the tofu with the marinade, and continue to stir-fry until the vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes. Add the pineapple and rice and stir-fry until the rice is hot, about 3 minutes. Serve topped with toasted cashews.
- This spicy-sweet fried rice is enough, but if you want a side dish, choose Sesame Broccoli (page 193). Pass a plate of Butterscotch Icebox Cookies (page 279) for dessert.
FSD - FRIED RICE WITH PINEAPPLE AND TOFU
FSD = Fat Smash Diet. Originally posted on http://www.FatSmashForum.com recipes forum by jenniam. From her notes: I left out the peanuts and used a little toasted sesame oil instead of peanut oil............it was very good and could be used in phase II with some chicken, but I have to say that I really did enjoy it with the tofu The brown rice in this dish is nuttier-tasting and better for you than white. Long-grain brown rice tends to be a little milder than short-grain, but whichever you use, be sure to start this recipe using cold cooked rice.
