Taste for salt at the end; broths and canned foods already add sodium.

Instead of: animal protein from recipe

Use: tempeh, smoked tofu or cooked legumes in the same quantity

Why: Animal protein provides amino acids and umami; tempeh or legumes cover both protein and satiety.

Tip: Marinate the tempeh for 10 minutes with soy sauce and garlic before sautéing for a more intense flavor.

Other variations

Lighter version: reduce oil to 1 tablespoon and add more vegetables in Baked Sea Bass with Lemon and Parsley.
