INGREDIENT FACTS & NUTRITION:

Tofu: Tofu is a complete protein containing all 9 essential amino acids. Tofu is a good source of healthy fats and a variety of micronutrients. There are different types of tofu categorized by firmness and water content. The firmer tofu contains less water meaning more calories and nutrients. Silken & soft tofu contain more water meaning fewer calories and nutrients. Tofu is made from soybeans and contains isoflavones, a phytoestrogen similar to estrogen that may provide certain health benefits for women during menopause and the potential for a reduced risk of heart disease. Eating foods that are higher in protein can help lower your appetite.

Brown Rice: Brown rice is a whole grain. Unlike white rice, brown rice does not undergo the process of removing its outer layers; which contain most of the micronutrients. Brown rice contains dietary fiber. Foods that are high in fiber can help keep you full longer and maintain a caloric deficit.
