Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons tamari, divided
  • 4 servings of your choice of pasta (see my favorites above)

  • 2 packed cups shredded kale
  • 1-2 cups your favorite marinara sauce (see my favorites above)
  • ¼ cup nutritional yeast

Instructions
  1. Slice the tempeh into ½" cubes. In a medium bowl, toss it with1 tablespoon of tamari. Let it marinate for at least 10 minutes.
  2. Prepare the pasta according to the directions on the package.
  3. In a medium sized pan, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil at medium heat. Add the tempeh and broccoli and saute until the tempeh is lightly browned and the broccoli is tender (about 10 minutes).
  4. Add the kale and stir it in until it wilts (about 2 minutes).
  5. When the pasta is done cooking, drain the water and return the pasta to the pot on the stove and turn the heat to low. Add the sauteed tempeh, vegetables and marina sauce, then stir until everything is warm.
  6. Transfer to plates, top with nutritional yeast, and enjoy right away.
