This vegan sweet chili tofu stir fry is a delicious and easy plant-based dinner recipe the whole family will love. Crispy peppers, onions and broccoli are combined with bite-sized bits of tofu (pan-fried or baked), and tossed in a vibrantly flavored sweet chili stir-fry sauce. Guaranteed to become one of your favorite tofu recipes!
