Simple enough, we cooked up some brown rice and quinoa in veggiestock/water and threw in some spices, salt and peppah'
Then we sauteed some tempeh in a 'honey mustard' sauce. I usually use Agave, but we got had some honey left over from the pre-vegan stage, so I figured, why waste it?
we threw in some frozen veggies: mixed peppers, corn and carrots, with an onions we pre chopped and threw in the freezer as well.
after they sauteed all together, we mixed some of the rice/quinoa in a bowl with the veggies and tempeh on top
Ta-Da! Delicious, nutritious, easy, and cheap dinner.
How much protein is exactly in this meal? (figure in about a 1/2 cup rice/quinoa, 1/2 cup tempeh and 1/3 cup mixed veggies)
1/2 cup Tempeh: 15g protein
1/4 cup brown rice: 4g protein
1/4 cup quinoa: 5g protein
1/4 cup corn: 3g
that equals: 27 grams of protein in ONE MEAL!
Not to mention its completely balanced, you have your good-carbs, and your veggies too!
Cholestoral? ....Zilch!
Fat? .... <6grams!
sugar? ... <6 grams! ( and you dont have to add the agave/honey in at all if you dont want!
Peace out cubscouts! get'cha veg on!
