Getting a little sick of your morning oatmeal? This one is for you, especially for those of you who add protein powder to it like I do. My recipe below, for this breakfast bowl, is packed with protein and fibre ~ it is a breakfast requirement slam dunk! I’m not lying, as well as delicious, I promise you won’t be hungry after!! The inspiration came to me when I was like... “There’s gotta be something else I can make other than oatmeal... but I love oatmeal ... except I have to add protein to it.... what is like oatmeal, but has tones of protein?..... Hmmmm.....Tempeh??? YASsSsS!” That was literally quote unquote, the conversation I had with myself. Tempeh of Power Breakfast Bowl

You will need... 4 oz plain tempeh - I used Lightlife Organic 1/2 teaspoon coconut oil 1/8 tsp cinnamon 1/4 cup original soy milk 1 pinch of salt 1/4 tsp Vanilla 1/2 banana The Sauuuce
1/2 tablespoon of sunflower seed butter mixed with 1 tablespoon of original soy milk. Possible Toppings
black berries raspberries blueberries Unsweetened coconut Hemp hearts
What you will need to do...
Start off by steaming the tempeh for about 15 minutes. Steaming helps removed that mild, bitter after taste ~ which I don’t notice that much anyway, but for a sweeter dish, it’s recommended.
Let the tempeh cool before you handle it, then cut it into thin slices or shreds. You can also slice up your banana.


Warm a skillet on medium-low heat and add the coconut oil to melt. Add the tempeh and allow it to golden a bit ~ 1-2 minutes. Add the banana. Continuously stir ~ this may break up your tempeh a bit more ~ that’s ok! Add your milk, vanilla, cinnamon and salt. Toss around until the tempeh browns slightly. Pour into a bowl and add your sauce and toppings of choice ~ serve it up hot like oatmeal!
