- 1 8 oz package extra-firm tofu drained, pressed, and cubed
- 2 tbsp tapioca starch
- 3 tbsp coconut aminos teriyaki sauce
- 4 tbsp avocado oil
- 2 cups stir fry veggies frozen or raw
- 2 garlic cloves minced
- 3 green onion stalks chopped (for topping)
- 1 tbsp sesame seeds for topping

Instructions
- In a bowl, coat the cubed tofu with tapioca starch. Toss the bowl to spread the starch evenly.

- Throw the veggies into the wok and stir fry them until desired tenderness. Once ready, place the tofu back into the wok.
- Pour the teriyaki sauce together with one tablespoon of olive oil into the wok. Add the minced garlic and stir. Stir fry for a few more minutes.
- Remove the wok from heat.
- Sprinkle with sesame seeds and chopped green onions over the tofu stir-fry. Serve immediately.
