This one’s especially fabulous because it’s got that protein-fiber-fat trifecta that keeps your hormones happy and your mood stable (no hanger here, babe). Her is to Vegetable Stir-Fry with Tofu.

Star Ingredients and Their Benefits
Tofu: A plant-based protein that’s packed with amino acids and phytoestrogens. Don’t be scared—these help balance estrogen levels, especially when yours are dipping.
Bell peppers, broccoli, carrots: Full of fiber, antioxidants, and vitamins that support detoxification and hormone regulation. Plus, they’re cute.
Ginger and garlic: Anti-inflammatory powerhouses that boost immunity and digestion. Your gut and liver say thank you.
Tamari or coconut aminos: Flavor without the bloat. We keep it salty but supportive, ok?
The Recipe - You’ll need:
1 block firm tofu, drained and cubed
1 red bell pepper, sliced
1 cup broccoli florets
1/2 cup carrots, julienned
2 tbsp avocado or coconut oil
2 tbsp tamari or coconut aminos
1 tbsp fresh ginger, minced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp sesame oil (optional but yum)
Green onion + sesame seeds for topping
Instructions:
Press tofu for 10-15 minutes to get rid of excess moisture, then cube it.
Heat 1 tbsp oil in a large skillet or wok over medium heat. Add tofu and cook until golden on all sides. Remove and set aside.
In the same skillet, add another tbsp of oil. Toss in garlic, ginger, and your veggies. Stir-fry for 4-5 minutes.
Add tofu back in, pour in tamari or coconut aminos, and stir to coat everything evenly.
Finish with a drizzle of sesame oil, top with green onion and sesame seeds, and serve over rice or quinoa.
