Ingredients
-
6 ounces dried wide rice noodles
-
2 tablespoons peanut oil, divided
-
1 (14 ounce) package extra-firm tofu, drained, patted dry and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
-
3 cloves garlic, minced
-
1 7-ounce package mung bean sprouts (about 2 cups)
-
1 bunch scallions, sliced, 1/4 cup reserved for garnish
-
¼ cup rice vinegar
-
3 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce (see Note)
-
2 tablespoons brown sugar
-
½ teaspoon crushed red pepper
-
½ teaspoon nutritional yeast
-
¼ cup chopped unsalted dry-roasted peanuts
-
Lime wedges
Directions
-
Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add noodles and cook until just al dente, 6 to 8 minutes. Drain and refresh under cold running water to stop further cooking and prevent sticking.
-
Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat. Add tofu and cook, stirring, until browned on all sides, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove to a plate. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil and garlic; cook, stirring, 15 seconds. Add sprouts, scallions, vinegar, soy sauce, brown sugar, crushed red pepper, nutritional yeast and the cooked noodles and tofu. Toss until heated through and the sauce has been absorbed, 1 to 2 minutes. Sprinkle with peanuts and the reserved 1/4 cup scallions. Serve with lime wedges.
Tips
Note: People with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity should use soy sauces that are labeled "gluten-free," as soy sauce may contain wheat or other gluten-containing sweeteners and flavors.

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.
* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
