Sauce for Tofu: 2 Tbsp hoisin or Korean BBQ sauce 1 Tbsp soy sauce 2 Tbsp rice vinegar 1 Tbsp lime juice 1 Tbsp sesame oil 1 Tbsp maple syrup 1 Tbsp ketchup 1 tsp chili paste with garlic (don't skimp!) 1/2 tsp grated ginger (I used jared)   2 eggs, beaten 1/2 tsp soy sauce 1/2 tsp sesame oil 3 cloves garlic, minced 1/2-inch fresh ginger minced 14 oz block extra firm tofu, drained 1 small onion, diced 1 red serrano (or jalapeño) pepper, sliced 2 small carrots sliced 1/2 cup frozen peas 2 cups chopped green cabbage 3 cups leftover cooked
