In this particular recipe, I used Annie Chun’s Chinese Stir-fry sauce as the main condiment and Quorn Tenders as an extra added boost of protein and nutrients. Generally, tofu is a great protein but I wanted to add a bit more to this dish and Quorn nuggets are also very satisfying and gives it a bit more nutrients.

Sauteed Green Beans with Tofu and Veggie Chicken:

I usually cook Asian food whenever possible. They’re easy to make, delicious, and wholesome. But sometimes I get a little stuck as to what to make when I’ve already done the fried rice, curry chicken, stir-fried tofu and vegetables dishes that has become our regular go-tos. Sure, fried rice is fairly easy – you just throw in a bunch of chopped veggies, eggs, and meat if you prefer, fry it together with some rice and seasonings and instant lunch or dinner! And in my house, we virtually eat rice with almost everything. Except however, my son loves noodles and prefers them over rice or anything else. So oftentimes I find myself stuck as to what to make as a noodle dish. And that’s when I turn to Annie Chun’s products.
