I made this recipe. It was okay, not awesome. I subbed white vinegar for rice vinegar, left out the corn starch and ginger and cashews, and doubled the tempeh. I served it with brown rice (because it was all I could find in the pantry - at least it's used up now) and scrambled egg made with Hoisin sauce, soy sauce, and white vinegar. There was quite a bit leftover. Doris and I are having it for lunch today and we will probably eat it with our dinner tonight.
Hoisin Sauce: $1
Vinegar: 10 cents
Soy sauce: 20 cents
Oil: 10 cents
Garlic: 50 cents
Tempeh: $6
Green beans: $1.50
Eggs: $1.33
Rice: 30 cents
Total: $11.03 ($3.67 per person)
Everything costs more when we don't have a CSA. I'm happy to use up my brown rice. I'm going to work on cleaning out the pantry this winter. In the summer I'm driven by the CSA, but in the winter I can work on the pantry.
