Ingredients
Scale
- One block of Tempeh (I used Smiling Hara brand)
- Coconut or Olive oil
- 1 cup of cooked quinoa
- 2 medium sized tomatoes
- 8 mini peppers or you can use one large bell pepper – diced
- 1/4 of a large yellow onion diced
- Olive oil
- 4 green onions, diced
- 1/3 cup of black beans, rinsed and drained
- Juice from 2 limes
- 2 teaspoons of ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon of smoked paprika
- Salt and pepper
- 2 tablespoons of Bragg’s Apple Cider Vinegar
- Smoked chipotle Tabasco sauce – use as much as you prefer but it gives the dish a nice smoky flavor
- 1 handful cilantro leaves, washed
Instructions
- I pan fried my tempeh in some coconut oil until lightly browned on each side – about 2 minutes per side. Then slice into 8 cubes.
- Into a large pan, add your olive oil and heat until hot. Add your onions and cook until translucent. Then add your tomatoes, peppers, black beans, juice, cumin, paprika, salt and pepper and the apple cider vinegar. Cook until heated through.
- Then add your Tabasco sauce (as much as you like), cilantro leaves, tempeh and quinoa. Give a good stir – taste and adjust seasonings. Top with green onions to garnish and serve in bowls.
