Vegan Meals
If you are vegan it is important to get your protein intake through tofu/soy, legumes, beans, pulses, buckwheat, quinoa, oats, brown rice, nuts & seeds, as well as some vegetables, such as broccoli π₯¦
Adults need around 0.75g of protein per kilo of bodyweight. Protein plays an important role in helping the body grow and repair cells. The body does not naturally produce protein, so the source has to come from food.
I'm a meat eater, but every now & then I cook myself a vegan meal just to vary my diet. Tonight's dinner was stir fried tofu & aubergineπ with black bean sauce and bok choi on the side. And of course, you can't complete a Chinese dish without some fluffy white rice!π
This took me 10mins to prep using M&S tofu and Lee K*m Kee's Black Bean sauce (any supermarket will stock this). Cooking time 30mins. There's plenty of online recipes you can follow to make this dish. Better than waiting for a takeaway!π₯‘
