Instructions
Start by cooking your desired amount of rice according to package instructions.
Add the dry TVP into a bowl and cover it with boiling water. Allow it to sit for 5 mins.
Meanwhile, make the sauce by combining garlic, ginger, brown sugar, water, soy sauce, dark mushroom soy sauce, Hoisin sauce, cornstarch, pepper and chili flakes. Whisk with a fork to combine.
In a skillet on medium heat, add 1 tbsp of oil and cook the TVP for 3-4 mins or until lightly browned. Stir constantly to avoid sticking.
Next, add in the sauce and cook for another 1-2 minutes to allow the sauce to thicken.
Divide the Mongolian vegan ground between 4-5 meal prep containers, with cooked rice, cucumbers, sesame seeds and green onions. Enjoy!

Notes
How much rice? Typically I like to cook 1/4 cup of dry rice per serving.Rice & Quinoa: I also like to mix half quinoa with half rice to add a little more nutritional value (fiber, protein and vitamins). You can also serve this meal prep with just cooked quinoa if desired.4 or 5 servings? I find this meal prep makes about 5 servings for myself but only about 4 for my husband. Adjust the rice and quinoa portions as desired to meet your goals. Note: Nutritional information is approximate values and can vary significantly depending on the specific brands of ingredients used.
