Vegan San Choi Bao

I know Im being slack on writing my progress, ill keep trying!

On the weekend I stocked up on supplies for week 3 of my detox. Saturday I went to Mr Vitamins on bronte road, bondi junction to get a few staples. I think I had been craving some protein so I picked up a bag of Tvp which is a vegan protein product that I have been using for a long time. It's extremely versatile, easy to use and very cheap. A bag is usually around $2.50 and you will get around 15 serves out of that.
On Sunday I went to the Marrickville markets with another health minded friend to stock up on organic produce. It was my first time to the markets and I instantly fell in-love. The vibe was one of a community and There was an equal distribution of fresh produce, yummy healthy market made meals and nick nacks new and old.

So withy fresh Produce and my TVP I decided to make a delicious Asian Dish that i have bern making for a while called San choi bao

This recipe is so versatile you can really change it up as much as you like. I'm going to provide my traditional recipe but I will highlight what changes I made for the detox period.

Ingredients
1 cup of TVP
1/2 Onion diced
tablespoon Ginger grated
1 Chilli
Tablespoon Sesame oil
1 cup Silken tofu
Soy sauce
Crushed peanuts
Mushroom
Zucchini
Red capsicum
Dice all of these veggies or use a thin grater
Lime
Mint and coriander
Big Lettuce leaves (any kind will do but iceberg or butter lettuce is good)

Soak the Tvp with water and soy for 15 mins
put sesame oil in the pan, fry up the onion, ginger and chilli then add the Tvp and fry for a couple I'd minutes
I use a thin mandolin grater for the zucchini, add this and the capsicum and mushroom to the pan for a coupe of minutes and you're done.
Lay big lettuce leaves down and scoop the mixture on to them. Sprinkle the herbs, nuts and line ontop and wrap up and enjoy!

So as I said, this recipe is very versatile. Try different veggies or nuts and I'm sure it'll still taste fab.

Last night I used mrs browns protein sauce instead if soy. I used a dash of olive oil instead of sesame. I kept the veggies raw and added Cherie tomatoes. And I sprinkled almonds ontop instead if peanuts.
