RED BEET TEMPEH
Tempeh recommendation: Natural tempeh made from black beans
Spicy tempeh combined with caramelized root vegetables and a hint of maple syrup - an explosion of flavour! The sweetness of the beet, carrots and parsnips is perfectly complemented by the slight spiciness of the chilli flakes and the aromatic vegan pesto. A simple dish with a sophisticated twist!
