Day 54 - Finally - something with soybeans.

After looking over many of the great recipes that were sent in, I decided to make something "all my own" with the other available ingredients on hand.  Basically it's soy bean stir fry.

Update: Thanks for all the great recipes, by the way, it certainly helped me get a handle on what I could do and what I couldn't.  Frankly, I did my own thing, because I need to avoid the store and this is the easiest way.

Ingredients:
1/2 Cup - Soy Sauce
1/2 Cup - Wasabi Mustard 
(Dijon would be an perfectly good substitute - we just happened to have this on hand)

1 tsp - Cumin
Cumin is a excellent spice for making meatless dishes have a richer flavor
1 tsp - Onion Salt
1 tbs - Olive Oil
1 tbs - Rice Vinegar

3/4 - 1 Cup cooked Soy Beans
1 Cup Rice
1 Pepper Chopped
2 Roma Tomatoes Chopped
Handful Spinach Leaves

Throw sauce and spice ingredients into the pan first.  

Throw in the chopped peppers 

Then Soy Beans 

I let this simmer for about a few minutes.  Nothing really needed to be cooked, but I though this would let the flavors absorb into the soybeans and soften the peppers as I don't like mine super crispy.  Later I added the rice, and let that simmer for a bit too.  

Lastly, I threw in the tomatoes and spinach. 

Doesn't that look colorful?

I thought this was super easy to throw together, it was also really delicious and satisfying.  I couldn't believe it was both healthy and vegetarian.  Perhaps I ate three bowls of it - completely guiltless though.  FYI - this goes well with a Zinfandel too - I tested that out for you.  

One final note - the soybeans were good, but I think I could probably make this same thing with a number of different bean varieties.  The soybeans were also a little crunchy, I couldn't be sure if this was just how they are or if I didn't make them quite right.
