Spicy Soy Chunk Stir-Fry

Soy chunks are extremely high in protein, providing over 50 g per 100 g of dry weight, making them one of the richest plant-based protein sources.

There’s also some bullshit nonsense available on the internet saying soy is high in estrogen, unless you’re a fucking plant this isn’t actually available to you. What is hyper available: all the hormones they put in meat animals.

Ingredients

• 50 g dried soy chunks
• 2-4 tbsp vegetable oil
• 1 small onion, sliced
• 1 bell pepper, chopped
• 1 small carrot, julienned
• 1 head of broccoli
• 2–4 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tbsp soy sauce (low sodium)
• ½ tsp chili flakes
• Salt & pepper to taste
• Optional: Sesame seeds. I used wasabi flavored.
• Optional: Coriander for garnish
• Optional: ½ cup cooked quinoa or brown rice

Instructions

• Rehydrate Soy Chunks: Soak soy chunks in hot water for 15–20 min, squeeze out excess water.
• Fry Soy Chunks: Heat oil in a pan, drop in soy chunks and brown. Remove from pan.
