The template for this recipe is a favorite in my house—flavorful rice, steamed vegetables, and crispy glazed tofu. Cooking this recipe traditionally is easy enough, but it requires lots of pots and pans, and you have to use both the stovetop and the oven. When dinner is over, I’m always the sucker who must do the dishes. With the Ninja® Foodi® SmartLid™, there’s only half as much to clean and it’s all dishwasher safe! Cooking this recipe in the SmartLid™ has given me that dishwashing time back—more time to relax and decompress after a long day.
Ingredient Info: This recipe is vegan and gluten-free, provided you source the correct teriyaki sauce—depending on the brand, some will contain gluten and may not be vegan. If this is a priority for you, be sure to read the label.
