Ingredients
  

Vegan ground "Beef"

Sauce

  • 2 tbsp brown sugar or maple syrup
  • 1 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp dark mushroom soy sauce if you can find this just sub for regular soy sauce or tamari
  • 2 tbsp Hoisin sauce
  • 1 tbsp minced ginger
  • 3 cloves minced garlic
  • chili flakes & black pepper to taste
  • ½ cup water
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch

Toppings

  • 1 large english cucumber, thinly sliced into half moons
  • 2-3 tsp sesame seeds
  • 2-3 green onions, thinly sliced
  • serve on top of cooked rice (see notes)

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.
