A Hearty and Flavorful Vegan Dish

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Cook Time: 30-40 minutes (depending on rice cooking time)

Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup texmati brown rice
  • 2 cups water (or as per rice package directions)
  • 2 medium yellow squash, sliced
  • 1 head broccoli, cut into florets
  • 1 medium onion, finely chopped
  • 1 pack Tofu sausage, sliced into rounds or crumbled
  • 4 tablespoons tamari (or soy sauce)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil or any other preferred cooking oil
  • Salt and pepper, to taste (optional)

Directions:

  1. Cook the Rice: In a medium-sized pot, bring 2 cups of water to a boil. Add the texmati brown rice, reduce the heat to low, cover, and let simmer until the rice is tender and all the water is absorbed. This will take about 30-40 minutes, depending on the rice’s specific instructions.
  2. Prepare the Vegetables: While the rice is cooking, wash and chop the yellow squash, broccoli, and onion.
  3. Saute Vegetables and Tofu Sausage: In a large pan or skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent. Add the yellow squash, broccoli, and tofu sausage to the pan. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender and the tofu sausage is golden brown.
  4. Season and Simmer: Pour the tamari over the vegetable and tofu mixture. Gently stir to combine and let simmer for about 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together. If desired, season with salt and pepper to taste.
  5. Combine and Serve: Once the rice is fully cooked, add it to the pan with the sautéed vegetables and tofu sausage. Mix everything together until well combined. Serve hot.

Serving Suggestions: This dish is delicious on its own, but it can also be paired with a side salad or a light soup for a complete meal.

Note: The Tofu Sausage and Rice is a delightful combination of hearty rice, flavorful tofu sausage, and fresh veggies. The tamari adds a rich, umami flavor that complements the dish perfectly. It’s a simple yet satisfying meal perfect for any day of the week. Enjoy!
