• 2 tbsp Water
• Marinated Tofu (optional)

Directions:

1. Bring a pot of water to boil & cook Broccoli for 5 minutes
2. Add Noodles & cook for additional 2-3 minutes or according to package
3. Meanwhile, sautee Onions, Garlic & Ginger
4. In a small jar combine Corn Starch & Water, shake to combine
5. Add Juice & Aminos, shake to combine
6. Drain Pasta and return to pot, add Onions, Garlic, Ginger & Sauce and stir until sauce thickens

My2Cents: Do not walk away from the pasta after adding the sauce, it takes maybe 2 minutes before it starts to thicken.  If you don't have a Clementine, any citrus juice will do - try Lime!  Add seasonings per your taste.  If adding the Tofu, use one brick and press out the water using a paper towel & something heavy placed on top.  Crumble Tofu and allow to marinate in Bragg Liquid Amino for about 5 minutes, saute with Onions, Garlic & Ginger.
