"This very quick and easy dish also has lots of visual appeal, with the white tofu standing out against a background of dark green Swiss chard. Serve it with rice."

  1. Excellent recipe - easy to follow and very yummy. I was able to easily make this gluten free and vegan. Best of all this was a great recipe to use up a bunch of farm share greens - I used green chard and beet greens.
     
  2. Drab and ended up dry.
     
  3. the tofu mixture was good...and the swiss chard was good - don't think i'd put them together next time though
     
  4. This had an ok flavor but nothing spectacular. The tofu soaked up all the juices so there wasn't much sauce to go with the rice I served with it.
     
  5. VERY good and VERY quick- a perfect after-work dinner that seems a lot more intensive than it is. I used 1 block of tofu and that seemed to be plenty. I also used kale, which really worked out well. I'll be making this again.

  1. Excellent. Jam packed with good nutrition value. I cooked the greens until they were wilted- this takes much longer than 30 seconds. Closer to 6-8 minutes. At 30 seconds, they would not even be heated, let alone cooked. I used 2 blocks of tofu instead of 4 since there were only 2 of us sharing the meal.
