Savory Tofu and Vegetables over Tomato Couscous image

I love couscous and found early on that the liquid one uses to cook the dish determines the flavor. So I use a variety of liquids but I'm pretty sure tomato couscous is my favorite. The dish from start to finish takes 30 minutes or less. It serves 4. Any meal that comes in at less than five hundred calories is a bonus.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover vegetables. I added some zucchini and bell pepper to the mix and it turned out great.

I've made this dish several times and it's always a hit. The tofu is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the vegetables are cooked to perfection.
