TEMPEH BOLOGNESE
Tempeh recommendation: Soybean tempeh (natural or with mountain herbs)
Hearty tempeh Bolognese meets spaghetti cooked al dente - a vegan classic that leaves nothing to be desired in terms of taste! Finely diced vegetables, aromatic Italian herbs and a creamy tomato sauce make this dish a real feel-good meal. Fresh parsley rounds it off perfectly.
