Plant-Based Stir Fry Variations
Vegan Fried Rice – Make this recipe with delicious fried rice instead of noodles!
Vegetarian Stir Fry – Substitute honey instead of agave syrup for a vegetarian version.
Tofu Veggie Stir Fry – Use pressed, extra-firm tofu instead of the vegan protein “porkless” bites in this recipe! Just be sure to add a little extra sauce (maybe even double!) since the tofu will soak up a lot of it.
Vegetable Stir Fry – Not feeling the Gardein Porkless Bites? You can also omit them and just stick to the veggies, noodles, and sauce.
Cabbage Stir Fry (Vegan) – Substitute the noodles with shredded red or green cabbage instead!

This looks yummy!
Question, when you say heat the veggies in a pan, do you heat up some oil first? Thank you
I didn’t see microwave directions on the package. Are you able to advise how you cook them in the microwave? I’m looking for quicker options for snacks that are high protein and these were recommended. Thanks in advance! 😀
Hi, Kaitrin! These little bites are perfect for a quick and easy high protein snack! As far as how to microwave them, I actually only microwaved the sauce and heated up the bites in a pan for this recipe. However, I would think heating them up for about 1-2 minutes would be sufficient! Great question 🙂
I like the sound of that. Meatless and porkless but still tasty. I’d add more noodles and some strong beans to make it tastier.
Thanks, Kathy! 🙂
I never really thought of a stir fry dish using a meat substitute like this. My sweetie has eaten items from this line, but not the porkless options.
It’s super delicious, Yona! Love the Porkless Bites!
Looks oh so delicious…very attractive presentation and that is so important to those who eat by sight
Thank you, Mardene! 🙂
