S: green tea, later I had a corn tortilla with hummus
D: In my quest to try new vegetarian things, I had some sliced tempeh, sauted in olive oil with coconut amines, mushrooms, side of roasted broccoli, a sweet potato. 2 squares dark chocolate. The tempeh (I keep seeing Tempe, my former home) tasted nutty to me, not soy-like. I liked it.

\The tempeh (I keep seeing Tempe, my former home) tasted nutty to me, not soy-like. I liked it.

I didn't like Tempeh until I 1) found a local manufacturer and 2) started pre-steaming it. Before that, it was always bitter to me. Now, it has this lovely, wholesome, nutty flavor. I love it!

[Crankin]

The tempeh I bought is made in western MA, so it is sort of local.
