Tupper Tips:

• Smoked tofu can be found at your local health food shop or in selected supermarkets. If you cannot find smoked tofu a pressed or firm tofu can be used.
• If using chicken, slice before adding to bowls.
• If corn is undercooked, return to microwave for a further 3 minutes.
• Want to feed more using this recipe? Simply add ingredients to burrito wraps instead of bowls.
• Extra seasoning such as a half a fat-free stock cube or spices can be added to your rice for more flavour.
