This was very good. The sweetness of the tofu mixture paired with the brussel sprouts and cilantro made a great combination. This was my first time making something with brusel sprouts and Im glad I chose this dish. Sometimes tofu can feel kind of "meh" but we actively went back for seconds here. - 2/18/14

Because I want my family to eat tofu and because this prepares so quickly, I would have rated it at 3. However, my daughter refused to eat any of it and my husband gave it a 1. He would not be more specific as to why other than the overall flavor. We're not vegetarians which explains this critique - 1/27/12

This was just great. I liked it from the first bite and it just kept getting better. I didn't have the brussel sprouts on hand so I used snap peas instead and served over brown rice (which let me spread if over 5 servings and still be very filling). Even my 8 year old son asked for seconds. - 2/11/09

This was pretty good - I especially liked the caramelized tofu. Normally, I brown tofu and just throw on some bottled sauces but this was a much fresher and tastier way of going about flavoring the tofu. I will try it next time with different greens but this is a great way to eat brussel sprouts. - 9/16/08
