Yummy Tempeh Broccoli Sauté Recipe

November 17th 2009 07:00
Sometimes you may not know what to serve as an entrée, so perhaps this might help in changing a little different for this coming Thanksgiving. ^_^

Tempeh is made from fermented soy beans—a protein-rich plant food. In just one serving of this recipe, there are 20 grams of protein. The broccoli in this recipe adds calcium.

Do enjoy!

Since Thanksgiving is so near, I have searched through my recipe database from Cancer Project and share with you some neat healthy suggestions for dinner.

Roasting vegetables with a mix of spices is an easy way to get all the healthy nutrients and fiber you need with very little added fat. This combination uses broccoli, peppers, squash, and eggplant. Serve them as a side dish, over couscous or brown rice, or wrapped up in a tortilla with salsa.

Do enjoy!
