Tempeh Fried Rice

Tempeh Fried Rice

Here is a simple dish that is a good base for many others. I usually make some rice the night before so it’s ready to go.

This dish is great on it’s own or as a side dish. It offers great flavours and is high in protein from the tempeh.

Let me know if you make this and tag me. I would love to hear your thoughts on the flavour combinations.
