Ingredients

2 tablespoons Fustini’s Garlic olive oil
1 lb. extra-firm tofu, cubed
2 teaspoons Fustini's Thyme balsamic
1 teaspoon soy sauce
2 tablespoon Fustini’s Sage and Wild Mushroom olive oil
1 medium onion, diced
1 garlic clove, minced
5 large carrots, peeled and sliced
2 32-oz cartons vegetable broth
1 cup frozen peas
salt and pepper to taste
12 oz fresh or dry wide green egg noodles
4 scallions, sliced finely (white and light green parts only), for garnish

Directions

In a medium skillet, heat Fustini's Garlic oil. When hot, add cubed tofu and cook until all sides are golden brown. Add Fustini's balsamic and soy sauce. Toss until tofu is coated.
In a medium stockpot, heat Fustini's Sage and Mushroom oil. When hot, add onions, garlic and carrots. Sauté until onions just start to soften. Add a splash of broth to deglaze the pan. Add the rest of the broth and the peas. Bring to a slow boil, then reduce heat to low and let simmer for 20 minutes.
Season with salt and pepper to taste. Increase heat to medium and return soup to a boil. Add tofu, then egg noodles. Cook about 10 minutes longer, or until noodles are al dente. Ladle into a bowl and garnish with scallions. Note: This recipe is a nice vegetarian twist on a traditional favorite.
