This week, a super tasty recipe from the very lovely Claire Obeid – Sydney-based yoga teacher, holistic health coach, and creator of the Saha Space. Just quietly, we’ve managed to steal her for two days a week at Urban Remedy… so welcome Claire!
This recipe is so delicious and has such an unbelievable sauce that it almost feels naughty. But it's NOT. It's a dream for veggies and surprisingly meat eaters think this is the bee’s knees as well. You can enjoy this as a really healthy and satisfying dinner or even for lunch the next day at work!
So let’s get going…
Ingredients:
• 3 tbsp natural peanut butter (found in health food shops)
• 1 block tempeh or organic tofu
• 1 bunch kale
• 1 bunch asparagus
• 1 packet soba noodles
• 1 tsp dried chilli
• ¼ cup shoyu or /tamari, rice wine and mirin
• ¼ cup water
• 1 thumb sized portion fresh ginger root, grated
• 1 tbsp coconut oil
• 1 lemon
Preparation:
1. Place tempeh/tofu between paper towels with a chopping board resting above to squeeze out excess water
2. Prepare soba noodles as per instructions
3. In blender/food processor combine peanut butter, shoyu/tamari, ginger, rice wine, mirin, chilli, water (to thin out mixture)
4. Dice vegetables
5. Heat coconut oil and fry tempeh/tofu, add in veggies and noodles – toss to coat
6. Pour peanut marinade
7. Serve with lemon
Variations:
• For the meat-eaters who just can’t do tempeh/tofu, go for organic, free-range chicken
• For another veggie variation, add in bean sprouts and egg
Bon appétit!

Are you full of beans?
Last week, we looked at the health (and environmental) benefits of cutting out meat and dairy for just one day per week. The facts are pretty astonishing.
But if you do decide to give them up and have a Meatless Monday or a meatless any-other-day, where should you get your protein from instead?
Here are some suggestions to get you started:
• Free-range, organic eggs:
Eggs are a complete protein, meaning they contain all of the essential amino acids.
• Milk alternatives:
- Nut milks
- Soy milk
• High protein grains:
- Amaranth
- Buckwheat
- Kamut
- Quinoa
- Seitan
- Soba noodles
- Spelt
- Whole oats
- Wild rice
• Legumes and beans:
- Adzuki beans
- Black beans
- Broad beans
- Butter beans
- Chickpeas
- Green beans
- Kidney beans
- Lentils
Click here for a full list of beans.
• Tofu and tempeh
• Nuts and seeds
• Nut butters:
Our favourite is ABC spread.
Almonds + Brazil nuts + Cashews = complete protein
• Seed butters:
- Sunflower seed spread
- Tahini
• Green veggies:
- Asparagus
- Broccoli
- Brussels sprouts
- Kale
- Spinach
- Watercress
Next week, we’ve got some super healthy, meat-free, high protein and carbon-friendly recipes for you. Stay tuned…
