When it comes to vegetarian meat alternatives, tempeh is often overlooked in favor of tofu. But when compared to tofu, tempeh has more protein and fiber [1], cornerstones of any healthy diet. Its firmer texture also makes it a great stand-in for traditionally meaty dishes like a bolognese sauce or tacos. If you're unfamiliar with how to use the soy-based product, look no further! These recipes are deceptively simple to make and will make you a tempeh convert for life.
