Tofu is amazing! However, not by itself. To me, the stuff straight out of the package is somewhat disgusting. It deserves to be baked, fried, broiled, sauteed and blackened.
I love garlic but when cooking with it there is a fine line between getting it crispy and burning it. Make sure to keep the heat at a medium-high temperature and be sure to keep stirring it when cooking.
I had some fresh basil and cilantro that on hand so I decided to toss it in the rice. The result was YUM!
ENJOY!
I have mentioned before that I used to not like the taste of Brussels Sprouts. I have spent many hours creating tasty creations with them and am now a BS-convert!
Did you know these sweet little cabbage-wanna-bes boast 124% of the RDA of Vitamin C. Plus a serving only contains 38 calories and 0.3 grams of fat!
The key, in my opinion, is to make them the a star ingredient in several of my creations because, after all, we all need some extra C!
You can serve this with any type of grain and can also substitute the red/yellow pepper with green.
ENJOY!
Eggplant is such a versatile veggie! It takes on the flavor of other ingredients but has its own texture. Eggplant is also an excellent source of fiber, B1, B6 and Vitamin K.
This combination of the veggies, sauce and coconut rice is amazing. However, if you are not a fan of any of these 3 veggies you can also experiment with other options.
There are a gazillion recipes for coconut rice available but I prefer mine that eliminates using any sugar.
ENJOY!
