Instructions:

1. Start by preparing the garlic butter noodles. Cook the noodles according to package instructions. In a pan, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and cook until fragrant. Add the cooked noodles to the pan, toss to coat in the garlic butter, and set aside.

2. In a bowl, whisk together the eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and scramble the eggs until cooked through. Transfer to a plate and set aside.

3. In the same skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the cubed tofu and cook until golden brown and crispy on all sides. Remove the tofu from the pan and set aside.

4. In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of olive oil. Sauté the sliced onion until translucent, then add the sliced mushrooms, julienned bell pepper, and carrot. Cook for 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender.

5. Return the tofu and scrambled eggs to the skillet with the vegetables. Pour in the soy sauce, honey, and lemon juice. Stir well to combine and let simmer for a few minutes.

6. In a small saucepan, melt the remaining tablespoon of butter. Add the milk and cooked noodles, tossing to combine and warm through.

7. Serve the vegetable tofu stir-fry over the garlic butter noodles. Garnish with fresh basil leaves and additional lemon wedges if desired.
