6 Add the beef and continue to simmer for about
5 minutes or until the beef is slightly pink
to brown (to a minimum internal temperature of beef
145 °F).
7 Add tofu and scallions, and simmer 1–2 minutes until
heated through.
8 Serve immediately in 1-cup portions.

Hint: There are several varieties of tofu, each with a different moisture level. Silken and soft tofu are the
moistest and easily blended into shakes, dips, and dressings. Regular tofu is less moist, and it’s best for
scrambling or using like cheese in casseroles. Firm, extra-firm, and pressed tofus are the driest. They
absorb other flavors easily and hold their shape in stir-fries and on the grill.
