Introduction

This is a nice sweet 'n' sour stir-fry I thought I'd share, since I just made it and it turned out to be delicious! It utilizes seitan as a protein source, which you can get in most health food stores. Seitan is made of wheat and has somewhat the consistency of chicken, but is vegetarian.

    1/2 cup sliced onion
    1/2 cup spinach or swiss chard, chopped
    1 clove garlic, chopped
    2 ounces seitan pieces
    2 Tbsp balsamic vinegar
    1 Tbsp soy sauce
    2 tsp worcestershire sauce
    10 raisins (or so)
    2 Tbsp nonfat greek yogurt

Directions

This makes one hearty dinner serving, or 2 -3 side dish servings. And it's only 308 calories for the whole thing, with 29 grams protein!
heat 1 tsp olive oil in skillet. Add sliced onions, chopped garlic, shredded cabbage and chopped spinach and let them soften in skillet. Add balsamic vinegar, worcestershire sauce and soy sauce. Let the liquid reduce a little and add some water if it starts so stick. It should create a nice sauce for the cabbage. Add the seitan and stir till it's heated.
Just keep adding a bit of water if it sticks.
Serve in a wide bowl sprinkled with raisins and with a dollop of yogurt on top. A perfect hearty vegetarian winter dish. (Leave out the yogurt and it's vegan.)

    Only 1/2-read the recipe before making this (duh!) but was ok with green cabbage & without kale/spinach. I left off yoghurt and raisins, too - didn't seem to chime with the idea of a stir-fry! I'd say, though, that you need 'vegetarian' Worcs Sauce for it to be vegan (real WS made with anchovies). - 1/26/14
