Tempeh Hash

This simple recipe yields a high-protein breakfast.

Yield 2-4 servings
Time 10 minutes
Tools
  • knife
  • medium to large frying pan
  • wooden spoon
Ingredients
  • 2 T olive oil
  • ½ pound tempeh, sliced into ½-inch pieces
  • ½ medium onion, chopped
  • 1 tomato, chopped
  • 1-2 T fresh herbs, minced
  • 2 T soy sauce
  • ¼ c walnuts or pecans, chopped
  • ¼ c cheese, grated (optional)
Directions Heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Arrange the tempeh slices on one side and the onion on the other. Let the tempeh fry undisturbed for 2-3 minutes, until golden brown, then flip and repeat on other side. Meanwhile, stir the onion to sauté evenly. It’s ok if it browns, but don’t let it burn – turn down the heat if necessary.

When the tempeh is evenly cooked, use the wooden spoon to chop it up, then mix it into the onion. Add tomato, herbs, soy sauce, and nuts and heat through. Sprinkle with cheese, cover, and let sit for a minute or two to melt. Serve hot.

Notes Serve with fruit, toast, veggie sausages, and scrambled tofu (or eggs) for a complete breakfast.

This is even better drizzled with flax oil (after you’ve removed it from the heat).
