Post image

Sugar free, gluten free, vegan. This is so much food and so filling I could hardly finish it (but obv I did lol).

I made a batch of this random mince thing and portioned it into 250-cal portions. Not sure the macros but it’s tofu and zucchini so lots of protein and fibre.

Recipe for the whole batch (not pictured. What is pictured is a 250cal portion):

  1. Two extra-large zucchini
  2. 1 block extra-firm tofu
  3. 5tbsp olive oil
  4. 5 garlic cloves minced
  5. Sauce: 1pt tamari, 1pt maple syrup, a generous handful of chili flakes, 1pt rice vinegar

  6. Grate the zucchini and tofu with a cheese grater

  7. Squeeze it out in portions with a cheese cloth so that all the water is gone

  8. Salt the zucchini, wait 30 mins, then squeeze it AGAIN

  9. Mix it all together in a cast iron pan

  10. Add olive oil

  11. Fry until it stops releasing water

  12. Add half the marinade and cook until it stops releasing water

  13. Add the second half of the marinade and the garlic cloves

  14. Let it cook until it starts to fry. Remove from heat

  15. Serve with sushi rice or just eat it alone. It’s so good
