What you'll need:
- A head of broccoli
- Bok Choy
- Two carrots
- Tofu (firm)
- Green onion
- Pepper
- Salt
- Olive Oil
- Any type of pasta you want
Take two big pots out, a frying pan and a cutting board. Fill one pot a little less than half way with water, fill the other pot with enough water that satisfies the 'how to make the pasta' directions. Place the pasta pot (PP) on the stove, and turn on high heat. Place the other pot on the stove too, just don't turn heat on for that pot right now.
Grab your cutting board and take your broccoli and bok choy, and rinse them off really really well. Cut off the ends of both. Chop up your broccoli any way you want, but after you cut the ends off of the bok choy cut in have vertically and place in the vegetable pot, not the pasta pot. Dump the broccoli in there, too! Place a cover over the pot, and you know when everything is done steaming when the bok choy shrivels up.
While you wait for the pasta pot to boil, take out your carrots and rinse them. Peel the first layer off, and throw in the trash. Cut off both ends, and do the same with the next carrot.
By then, your pasta water should be ready! Put in the pasta (add however much pasta you would like).
Watch your vegetables carefully, making sure the water doesn't evaporate. If it does, add more water. Apply as much water as you need.
Take out your tofu, and drain it. Cut up into small or big pieces (whichever you prefer) and throw in the pan. All the tofu really needs is to be heated up, but if you have your own way you want to cook the tofu then go ahead! Rock that tofu swagger.
When the veggies are done, drain them and put them back in the pot. When the pasta is done, drain that too! Put it back in the pot that you cooked it in. When the tofu is done, turn the heat off for that and make sure NO burner is on! If a burner is on and its the burner for the veggies, the veggies will seriously BURN and stick to the bottom of the pan! NOT good. This isn't called burnt pasta - its GREEN pasta! ;)
Return to your cooking board, and chop up the green onions as many as you want, and as small or as big as you want.
Apply olive oil into the noodles, but layer it so you don't have too much hanging around at the very bottom. Add tofu, veggies, and green onions. Mix it all in nice and green! Put that aside for about three seconds and grab your carrots. Peel your carrots on top of the pasta, and mix the carrots in as well.
Serve, and enjoy!
