Three-Cup Vegetables

Three-Cup Vegetables is a plant-based twist on the traditional Three-Cup Chicken, swapping root vegetables like carrots, parsnips, sweet potatoes, and turnips for the chicken. Braised in a savory mix of soy sauce and sesame oil (optional) with fragrant ginger, garlic, and basil, this dish is rich in flavor and nutrition. For a heartier meal, double the sauce and add tofu along with quick-cooking veggies like broccoli or snap peas for a satisfying, flavorful bowl.

Tempeh Sausage Stuffing
Substituting plant-based foods for meat can lead to enormous health benefits. Research shows that organic soy products may lower cholesterol levels, reduce inflammation, and, in tempeh’s case, improve digestive health due to its high fiber content. In this traditional-tasting recipe, tempeh adds a rich texture when cooked with whole grain bread, and the fennel and other spices give it a delectable flavor.
