FSD = Fat Smash Diet. From her notes: I left out the peanuts and used a little toasted sesame oil instead of peanut oil…………it was very good and could be used in phase II with some chicken, but I have to say that I really did enjoy it with the tofu The brown rice in this dish is nuttier-tasting and better for you than white. Long-grain brown rice tends to be a little milder than short-grain, but whichever you use, be sure to start this recipe using cold cooked rice. Ingredients:
1 (14 ounce) package firm tofu, drained and cut into 1/2-inch cubes |
2 tablespoons roasted peanuts or 2 tablespoons peanut oil, divided |

4 cups cooked long-grain brown rice, chilled |
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro, divided |
1 (15 1/4 ounce) can pineapple chunks in juice, drained |
1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce |
1 tablespoon unsalted dry roasted peanuts, chopped |
