Tofu Stir Fry
I was browsing the recipe section of DANDR 2002 -- looking to make a crustless quiche -- and happened upon this:
Tofu Stir Fry over Baby Spinach
Firm tofu, green onions and cherry tomatoes, stir fried in oil -- seasoned with garlic, ginger and 5-spice powder -- served over raw spinach.
10 gm carbs, 3 gm fiber -- 7 net carbs
Sounds good, doesn't it? As a vegan, you will be eating lots of tofu stir fries. In fact... see the Vegetarian Low Carber forum. They have a thread titled: "Low Carb Vegan? for Dummies" and another one with "Vegan Desserts." They are discussing firm tofu and the like. Good support group.
A co-worker gave me a venison steak, frozen, from her father's last hunting trip. While I haven't the foggiest notion how to cook it -- still I was thinking how nice it will be, knowing the animal at least had a decent life before it was killed for our nourishment. Factory farming is truly horrible.
