  • 2 cloves garlic, minced, divided

  • ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper, or to taste

  • 1 red bell pepper, cubed

  • ½ cup fresh green beans, cut into 1/2-inch pieces

  • 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger

Directions

  1. Place noodles in a large bowl and cover with boiling water. Set aside until noodles are softened, about 15 minutes. Drain and rinse thoroughly.

  3. Heat remaining 2 tablespoons coconut oil in a large skillet over low heat and cook the remaining garlic until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add bell pepper and green beans and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Remove tofu from marinade and add to vegetables. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and mix well. Season with vegetable seasoning, salt, and pepper. Stir-fry for 2 minutes. Cover and cook for 3 minutes. Add drained noodles and stir to combine.
