Spicy Zucchini with Tofu

This has been a weird weekend for many different reasons (none of which I will go into detail here). Here is how today went. Wake up. Walk into the kitchen and open the fridge. Search for nutritious morsels to satisfy taste buds and belly. Spot some zucchinis and pull them out. Grab some tofu. Dig deeper into the fridge and pull out... yes! Some green onions. We're good to go.

I have to admit I had no idea what I was making. I placed a pan on the stove and drizzled in some olive oil. I sliced the zucchini and cubed the tofu, throwing it all into the pan. I stood there, sautéing in my morning stupor, and trying to plan the course of my day. I might not be able to control all of the craziness in my life, but I can control my brunch, and today, that was just fabulous.

3 zucchinis, sliced
1/4 block extra-firm tofu, cubed
green onions for garnish
olive oil
cumin
paprika
cayenne pepper
salt and pepper
balsamic vinegar

Place zucchini and tofu in a pan over medium heat and sauté with the olive oil for 5 minutes or until lightly browned, turning as needed. Sprinkle with cumin, paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper to taste. Remove from heat and garnish with green onions and balsamic vinegar.
