Stir-Fried Rice and Gomasio

I had a bunch of steamed Chinese cabbage I needed to get rid of, plus I had used my rice cooker to make four cups of long-grain brown rice, so I decided to make STIR-FRIED RICE last night.

Ingredients
1 tblsp. — olive oil
2 — 1-lb blocks tofu, cubed into 1/2-inch-sized pieces 
To taste — tamari, toasted sesame oil, agave syrup, gomasio
1 — chopped red onion
Small amount — chopped hot red pepper
4 cups — cooked brown rice
3-4 cups — chopped steamed greens (Chinese cabbage, kale, collards, etc.)
To taste — more toasted sesame oil, olive oil, tamari, nutritional yeast, turmeric for color (1/4 tsp)
Serve with salad
 
Method
In a large frying pan add a tablespoon of olive oil and two one-pound blocks of tofu that are cubed into half-inch-sized pieces. Sprinkle it with tamari, toasted sesame oil, agave syrup, and GOMASIO. I will mention how to make that, below.
 
Add a chopped red onion and a small amount of chopped hot red pepper. The pepper isn't necessary, but it does add a nice touch of color and hotness.
Keep stirring it every now and then, scraping the bottom and sides of the pan throughout this process.
