I finally tried tempeh....

and really liked it! I used it in a stir-fry with some brown rice, onion, and a little soy sauce. Wrapped it in a whole wheat tortilla and very fast and easy meal. The flavor was very good. I have tried to buy this for several weeks but my grocery store is always out of it. They don't stock very much of it. I'll definitely buy it on a regular basis!

I've never had it Jane. Is it like Tofu??
I saw a thread a couple days ago with great ideas for tofu, so I was thinking of going to get some and trying some of them.
I love tofu (and have eaten it at chinese resteraunts) but have never done anything with it myself except put it in smoothies.

Your recipe sounds yummy. Have you tried Uncle Ben's Brown rice in the microwave bag? It's fast and convienent but I'm wondering if it's considered even halfway "clean" ??

Good morning Becky,

It is a little different than tofu but very good. I did a stirfry last week of some chickpeas, brown rice, and extra firm tofu I'd diced with some soy sauce and ginger. I wrap it in a WW tortilla. That recipe and the one I made last night are good and so satisfying. You just get that good feeling after you eat. I used the Comet brown rice in a bag, I also use the Comet basmatic rice in a bag. It is just to convenient and fast to pass up. Not sure about clean but the nutritional analysis is close to the same as the dried rice.
