We did it! We could fix the Vegan Chili Beans in a healthier version with Pasteurized Soy. This Tex-Mex dish is one of the favorite for many people in America – South USA and North Mexico. It is recommended to people with diabetes, high-cholesterol, or vegans, to prevent the meat intake, with enough proteins for a balanced diet.
Remember that the Pasteurized Soy is not only an economic ingredient, but it also has enough proteins to replace meats. In addition, the Soy is recommended to women during menopause, with changes in hormone levels, for it helps to balance metabolism.
Soy is also a source of calcium, magnesium and Omega 3, which contributes enhancing the bones mass. This is relevant to prevent the loss of calcification in the future.
Due to its low carbohydrates, this recipe is recommended to those subscribed to El Reto, in a weight loss program.
An important Tip: the Pasteurized Soy should be hydrated enough time to soften and absorb the sauce flavor.
