Tempeh Taco Bowl (GF, oil-free, WFPB)

Hey babes!

So, I’ve been thinking. When I go to find a recipe online, I’m not looking for a life story. I’m looking for a recipe that fits the ingredients I want to prepare. So, I’m going to stop boring you. If you want me to add in all the flavor and facts about the ingredients, I’ll add citations below. But let’s not kid ourselves, you’re here for the food.

I like tempeh in this bowl as the main protein because it’s both meaty and probiotic, but feel free to add any grain, veggies, and toppings you like. Please comment with questions and enjoy!
