Oh My Tempeh!

Tempeh + Sweet Potatoes = Heaven

Even tho I usually hate tempeh, 
I loved this.
Therefore, I am documenting my process 
so that I may replicate it 
for the second half 
of my tempeh block.

Tempeh de Stephanie

In a pan with a lid, add:
a lil' water
a few grinds of black pepper
a few drizzles of liquid smoke
a dash of maple syrup
a dollop of dijon mustard
a dash of poultry seasoning
a squirt of Braggs or shoyu
a pinch of celtic sea salt

Then add:
4-6 dried shitake mushrooms
1/2 block of tempeh, chopped to bite size

Medium heat for a few minutes, stirring frequently
Add water if needed (like if pan gets too dry and wants to burn)
Turn to low and cover for a few more minutes
Bon appétit!

UGH.

This is not a happy post.
It's an honest post.

[this is my plug for "Cowspiracy", the documentary, available full length on you tube]

I am seriously going to blow my brains out 
if people don't start acknowledging 
the impact of eating meat.


Likewise, every time you eat or drink, you are casting a vote. 
A vote for the environment, or a vote for your own pleasure.
A vote for environmental welfare, or a vote for global warming.
A vote for sustainability, or a vote for destruction.
A vote for solving world hunger, or a vote for solving our own gluttony.

I DON'T GET IT.
What is happening?
Why don't more people care?
I don't get it.
It's not for you or me. It's for us. ALL of us.
