Notes:
- To boost the protein content of this recipe, add rehydrated textured vegetable protein (TVP), cooked lentils, or vanilla protein powder (1 Tbsp to 1/4 cup depending on your preference).
- I also like to add shredded zucchini or carrot after cooking, and/or top with walnuts or seeds (hemp, pumpkin, sunflower etc..)
