Well-dressed Tofu Bowls : page 130

This is an excellent facsimile of a dish a local organic restaurant serves. I no longer need to go there when I have a craving. I sub'ed brown rice for sushi rice because one flavorless, gummy grain is the same as another for me. The sauce made of ingredients including Sriracha and lemon juice provides all of the flavor anyway.

This isn't hard to make but there are multiple components to putz around with, so it did take me nearly an hour to make. It could stand for more veggies than just broccoli OR Brussels sprouts as the recipe calls for. Next time, I'm throwing some carrot in there. Maybe some kale or spinach too.
