Simple stir-fry of tofu and baby broccoli with spinach, garlic, ginger, green onions, red chilis, lime, and Trader Ming's General Tsao Stir Fry Sauce. Broccoli and tofu form the base of this stir-fry beyond that there are many layers of flavor and texture; heat from the fresh ginger and red chiles, sweet and buttery flavor from the cashews, a bit of tang from the lime, and sweetness from the stir fry sauce. Serve over rice, noodles, or straight out of the bowl.
