Ingredients:

Serving

2 tbsp peanut oil
2 tbsp ginger, diced
1 tbsp garlic, diced
1 lb extra firm tofu, cut into 1/2-inch dice
1 lb green beans, stemmed , and cut into bite-sized pieces
1 tbsp tamari
2/3 cup all natural-style peanut butter
6 green onions, chopped
4 tsp ginger, diced
2 tsp garlic, diced
1 cup light coconut milk
2 tbsp lime juice
2 tsp brown sugar
1/2 tsp cayenne
2 tbsp tamari

Directions:

In a large skillet or wok, saute the ginger, garlic, and tofu in the oil until the tofu is browned on all sides, about 15 minutes. Mix in the green beans and tamari and cover tightly. Steam the beans until crisp-tender, about 10 minutes. Remove the lid, and saute until the beans are have browned a bit and tender to your liking.
Meanwhile, in a food processor, add all the coconut-peanut sauce ingredients and process until smooth.
Add the peanut sauce and cook until thickened, 2-3 minutes. Serve over rice noodles or rice.
