Tofu Stir Fry

I don't know why I thought a stir fry would be expensive or difficult but once I tried it I realized it was neither. Nothing except for the stir fry sauce cost more than two dollars and the sauce was only two and some change.

Ingredients:
3 Cups rice (I love long grain brown)
1 bag frozen stir fry veggies
10 oz firm tofu cut into cubes
2 Tsp olive oil
a bottle of stir fry sauce

Directions:
Cook the rice according to the package directions (if you have to use instant knock yourself out but the regular rice is so much cheaper and it is easy to make with a rice cooker). Heat the oil in a large frying pan or wok and add the tofu. Cook until the outsides become golden brown then add the bag of stir fry veggies. Stir constantly for about three to four minutes (until veggies become hot). Carefully drain the oil from the pan then add however much stir fry sauce you want and heat the whole mixture up for a minute or two then just plop however much you want on top of rice. I got a good four meals out of this for under 8 bucks.
