Lita’s Loves – Marinated Tempeh

Another "hit" for Turtle Island Foods, Inc. - you know those same people who make Tofurky (including the new Tofurky pizza I mentioned a few weeks ago)?Here's the latest product I've tried from them - Marinated Tempeh. I purchased 2 varieties at Whole Foods last week:Yummy Sesame Garlic and Coconut Curry.They're very quick and easy to prepare. Just last night I made dinner with the Sesame Garlic strips. Here's what I did:1. Heated a tablespoon of safflower oil in a pan on medium high heat.2. Added 1/2 a sliced onion and let it cook for about 5 minutes.3. Added 4 sliced mushrooms and let them cook and brown.5. Pushed the onion and mushroom to the sides of the pan and layed 5 slices of the tempe (only about 125 calories total) in the center of the pan - allowed them to brown on each side about 1.5-2 minutes.I had already steamed some rice and tossed a little salad and put those on my plate. When I added the tempeh - VOILAan incredibly tasty meal was born!Super yummy, low in calories and perfect for this chilly evening at home.Enjoy,~ LitaP.S.
