Crispy Miso Tofu & Sesame Rice Bowl

Tofu doesn't need to pretend to be meat to make a good dinner. Get the outside properly crisp, give it plenty of miso and sesame, and it becomes the part of this bowl you actually look forward to finding.

The rice benefits from catching in places too, while the broccoli only needs a few minutes so that it stays green and has some bite.

Combine the miso dressing, soy sauce, 1 teaspoon sesame oil, honey and garlic in a large bowl.
