tempeh

Those who know me well know there’s no food I love more than a good ‘ol sandwich🥪. This smoky tempeh, lettuce, avocado and tomato (TLAT??) didn’t disappoint! I smothered it with garlic aioli for some delicious zing. You can buy tempeh bacon ready-made, but I used a combo of vegetable stock, tamari, maple syrup, liquid smoke and smoked paprika to make a marinade.

Mmmm… Hearty, smoky lentil stew. I added some pan-fried maple-smoked tempeh from @the_tofurky_company for some added oomph. Great way to up the comfort on these cold days.

Ingredients:
– 1 Tbsp oil
– 1 onion, diced
– 3 carrots, chopped
– 3 stalks celery, chopped
– 1 bunch baby spinach
– 2 potatoes, cubed
– 1 cup dried green lentils, rinsed
– 1 can diced tomatoes
– 2 cups vegetable stalk
– 1 pack maple smoked tempeh, diced and pan fried
– 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
– 1/2 tsp tumeric
– 1/2 tsp oregano
– 1 bay leaf
– salt & pepper, to taste

Directions:
1- Sauté onion in oil in large pot until translucent. Add remaining vegetables and stir. Add spices and stir to coat.
2- Add lentils, chopped tomatoes and vegetable stock. Bring to boil then reduce heat to simmer. Leave covered until vegetables and lentils soften, about 30-45 minutes.
3- Stir in tempeh. Enjoy!
