Easy Veggies, Rice, and Gardien Beefless Tips Stir Fry

Gardein is pretty much a plant-based meat substitute powerhouse (what a mouthful)! These beefless tips kinda freak me out a bit because of how much the texture resembles meat. So, if you're longing for a beef-like substance between your teeth, this might just be the meal for you.

This is a very satisfying meal that's pretty nice to look at too!

Easy Gardein Beefless Tips Stir FryAdapted from back of Gardien package

Ingredients:

1 package Gardein Beefless Tips, cut in half

2 cups cooked rice (we used wild variety)

2 tbsp soy sauce

1 tsp sesame oil

1 tsp fresh ginger, finely grated

1garlic clove, finely minced

2 tbsp brown sugar

1 1/2 tbsp vegetable oil

1 onion, thinly sliced

2-3 green onions, thinly sliced

2 peppers, sliced lengthwise 

Directions:

Remove Gardein Beefless Tips from package, thaw for 5 minutes, and cut in half. 

In large bowl combine soy sauce, sesame oil, ginger, garlic clove, and brown sugar. Mix well and set aside. 

In a non-stick pan over medium heat, sauté halved Gardein Beefless Tips in vegetable oil for 4-5 minutes caramelizing well on all sides. Remove from pan and set aside. 

Add onions and peppers to the pan and cook until onions are caramelized and peppers are soft, approximately 2-3 minutes. Add soy sauce mixture, cooked beefless tips and cook until sauce has thickened and everything is hot.

Serve stir fry over cooked rice and enjoy!
