DELICIOUS TEMPEH
This delicious food is made from soybeans and a culture similar to acidophilis. Often grains are added to render different flavors and increase the nutritional value. The nutritious culture binds the beans and grains and the result is a high protein food. Tempeh is the highest source of protein ounce for ounce than any food and it is the most easily digested protein. Tempeh is recommended as a healthy diet choice by Dr. Shintani.

1 Pkg. Tempeh (flavor of your choice), cubed
3 Tbs. Safflower oil or olive oil
1/3 Cup Water
2 Tbs. Soy sauce or Braggs, or to taste
3 Tbs. Nutritional yeast
1 tsp. Spike seasoning salt or unsalted Spike

1. Heat oil in a nonstick skillet to medium heat and add cubed tempeh. Let brown for about 3 minutes. Turn tempeh over and let brown another 3 minutes.
2. Add the water and soy sauce and cover.
Turn heat down to low and cook for about 10 minutes. Turn off heat and sprinkle tempeh with nutritional yeast and some spike seasoning salt, regular or salt-free.
3. The tempeh can be eaten as it is with some brown rice and a green salad. Barbecue sauce, peanut sauce, or Teriyaki sauce can be added once the tempeh has been prepared.
