Sauteed Green Beans with Tofu and Veggie Chicken

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:
