I know it looks a bit rough, but it’s delicious: bean and tofu stew with spinach, 475 calories, 44g of protein

It’s obviously on the higher end of calories for this sub, but for that, is has a very good amount of protein 🙂 it also has around 19g of fiber per serving.

For 4 portions, take:
– 215g white beans
– 100g mung beans
– 2 small onions
– 3 cloves garlic
– bay leaf
– a bit of fresh thyme and fresh rosemary

And put them in a pot, adding water until everything is covered + about 3cm. Bring it to a simmer, let it cook until the white beans are soft and add water as needed. The mung beans will cook down into a creamy slurry.

Add
– 600g of fresh or frozen spinach leaves
– 400g of smoked tofu
– a sensible amount of broth (I don’t know what measurement to put here, just add a tablespoon or three and adjust to taste)

Cook it down a little, let the flavors mingle.

Add
– salt and pepper to taste
– a little sugar
– a dash of lemon juice/vinegar

And just season with these components until you’re satisfied with the taste. Remove the bay leaf and stick bits of the herbs and enjoy 🙂
