1 clove garlic, chopped
1 tablespoon rice wine (or apple cider) vinegar
2 teaspoons sesame oil

Salad:

Vegetable oil cooking spray
1 tablespoon canola oil
1/2 pound extra-firm tofu, drained well
4 scallions, sliced in 2-inch segments
2 cups broccoli florets

Add remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons oil to skillet. Stir in broccoli, edamame and mushrooms. Reduce heat to medium; cook, stirring often, 3 to 4 minutes. Add broth.
