Tofu ensures that protein is present on the plate and that the fat content is low. Vitamin C is provided by mango, peppers, and broccoli in sufficient quantity to cover the daily requirement.
Even smarter
Rice or rice noodles are a great side dish. If you want the highest possible fiber content, natural or whole grain rice is recommended!
