My Favorite Celery Stir Fry

Savory, quick and delicious, this is one of my favorite ways to prepare celery!
Veggies
- 8 oz celery, washed well and cut on the bias (or cubed) ~ this cooks down to about 6 oz.
Protein
- Your favorite protein, or 4 ounces of plain tofu (diced or crumbled), as I used here
Grain
- 4 oz cooked rice, quinoa, millet, etc, optional
Condiments
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- drizzle of low-sodium Tamari or soy sauce
- pinch salt
- Black sesame seeds and chili flakes, optional
First, warm a skillet over medium high heat. Add in a drizzle of sesame oil and the sliced garlic. Add in the salt and sauté just until aromatic, being careful not to burn.
Next, add in the celery, and about 1 tablespoon or two of water. You can either sauté until the celery is done, or top with a lid and cook it that way.
Lastly, add in the tofu and stir to heat. Sprinkle some sesame seeds and chili flakes on top, if using. Serve with rice, optional.
