Tempeh, Broccoli, Cabbage, Avocado & Kiwi Salad 印尼豆豉蔬菜主食沙拉

With <a href="http://teczcape.blogspot.com/search/label/workout%20meals">salad and grain bowls</a> incorporated into our family meals, there are endless possibilities to switch up the vegetables, grains and proteins.<br /><br />For choice of meat proteins in our family, it is usually (almost surely) chicken e.g. <a href="https://teczcape.blogspot.com/2017/12/broccoli-cauliflower-chicken-quinoa-bowl.html">Steamed Vegetables with Quinoa and Rotisserie Chicken Bowl</a> , <a href="https://teczcape.blogspot.com/2017/08/asparagus-cauliflower-chicken-quinoa.html">Asparagus and Cauliflower with Quinoa and Chicken</a>; and for seafood-based protein, it can be either fish or shrimps e.g. <a href="https://teczcape.blogspot.com/2017/10/shrimps-avocado-radish-mixed-vegetables.html">Avocado, Radish, Mixed Veggies and Shrimp Bowl</a>. Other times, it might be as basic as - one egg, like in this <a href="https://teczcape.blogspot.com/2017/07/mushrooms-green-beans-broccoli-salad.html">Mixed Veggies, Mushrooms and Egg Salad</a>.<br /><img src="https://c1.staticflickr.com/9/8409/30271340685_47c3bdc497_z.jpg" /><br /><br />Of course, there are also meatless protein options e.g. tofu, <i><a href="https://teczcape.blogspot.com/2016/01/tempeh-green-beans-long-beans.html">tempeh</a></i>. As my homemade protocol, a meal-salad bowl is made up (at least 50% of the bowl) with mostly vegetables - salad greens always on the bottom, then built up with hardier vegetables (can be steamed or raw) such as broccoli, cauliflower, green beans, green cabbage, red cabbage, zucchini and red onions. Based on the seasons, I also like to add fruits e.g. nectarines and berries during summer, apples during the autumn months; kiwi and oranges in winter.<br /><a name="more"></a><br /><img src="https://c2.staticflickr.com/6/5333/30271342645_d1ef57ab2a_z.jpg" /><br /><br /><iframe align="left" frameborder="0" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" scrolling="no" src="//ws-na.amazon-adsystem.com/widgets/q?ServiceVersion=20070822&OneJS=1&Operation=GetAdHtml&MarketPlace=US&source=ss&ref=as_ss_li_til&ad_type=product_link&tracking_id=anestofo-20&marketplace=amazon&region=US&placement=B00GRIR87M&asins=B00GRIR87M&linkId=8eb8f9a3af1abae73692a9c8541de50f&show_border=false&link_opens_in_new_window=true" style="height: 240px; padding-right: 10px; padding-top: 5px; width: 120px;"></iframe><b><i>Tempeh</i>, Broccoli, Red Cabbage, Avocado, Kiwi with Mushrooms 印尼豆豉蔬菜主食沙拉</b><br /><i>Ingredients</i>:<br />4oz organic <i>tempeh</i> (Trader Joes organic 3-grain tempeh )<br />2-3 handfuls of organic salad mix<br />2 cups of steamed broccoli and/or cauliflower florets, with steamed sliced zucchini<br />1-2cups julienned cabbage and/or red cabbage<br />Thinly sliced red onions<br />1 hard-boiled egg (<span style="color: blue;">Note</span>: As part of meal prep., I batch-cook eggs over weekend for a week's supply of hard-boiled eggs)<br />1/2 avocado, sliced<br />1 kiwi, sliced<br />10-12 organic white mushrooms, roasted 400F 30mins<br /><br />[<i>Dressing</i>]: 1 tsp minced garlic, 1 tsp organic dried oregano, 1tsp organic cider vinegar, 2 tsp extra-virgin olive oil<br /><br /><i>Directions</i>:<br />Add salad mix to the bottom of the bowl.

Tempeh Green Beans/ Long Beans 长豆炒印尼豆豉

<a href="http://teczcape.blogspot.com/2011/07/spicy-tempeh-with-green-beans.html">Tempeh</a> is one ingredient that I have only cooked twice in the span of almost ten years! I should use it more often as it packs a punch of benefits as a source of <a href="http://www.teczcape.blogspot.com/search/label/Vegetarian">vegetarian</a> protein, even better with higher protein and fiber than <a href="http://www.teczcape.blogspot.com/search/label/eggs%20and%20tofu">tofu</a>. Similar to <a href="http://www.teczcape.blogspot.com/2015/06/korean-spicy-cold-chilled-tofu.html">tofu</a>, tempeh is a soy product; however the main difference lies in the fact that tempeh is cultured and fermented while tofu is not.<br /><br />The nutty taste, firm and chewy texture and nutritional benefits of tempeh is rather unique on its own.<br /><img src="https://farm9.staticflickr.com/8756/17621530153_0606c4ed86_z.jpg" /> <br /><br />Tempeh with long beans/green beans also brings back my childhood memories as a must-order item at the Malay-rice stall in the school canteen. With feelings and memories of this childhood dish, I decided to give it a shot again, probably working on the sauce/gravy that pulls the tempeh and green beans together.<br /><img src="https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7754/18243441471_72d0827ed5_z.jpg" /><br /><br /><a name="more"></a><br /><img src="https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7750/18054314108_a83566a3c0_z.jpg " /> <br /><b><br /></b><iframe align="left" frameborder="0" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" scrolling="no" src="//ws-na.amazon-adsystem.com/widgets/q?ServiceVersion=20070822&OneJS=1&Operation=GetAdHtml&MarketPlace=US&source=ss&ref=ss_til&ad_type=product_link&tracking_id=anestofo-20&marketplace=amazon&region=US&placement=B00FUF5K8W&asins=B00FUF5K8W&linkId=IITWXTBNMC4Y4CIP&show_border=false&link_opens_in_new_window=true" style="height: 240px; padding-right: 10px; padding-top: 5px; width: 120px;"></iframe><b>Tempeh Green Beans/ Long Beans 长豆炒印尼豆豉</b><br /><i>Ingredients</i>:<br />8-10 cherry tomtoes organic, sliced to halves<br />2-3 green onions, sliced to half-finger lengths<br />5 gloves garlic finely minced<br />1lb organic green beans, sliced to half-finger lengths<br />1 block tempeh organic 3-grain from trader joes, sliced to cube sizes<br />salt and pepper to taste <br />[<i>Sauce</i>]: Mix 1tbsp organic light soy sauce, 2-3tbsp Tomato-based salsa or tomato sauce, 1tbsp chili sauce 1tsp brown sugar, 4-5 tbsp of water.
