Ingredients
- 2 baked sweet potatoes (preferably) Ingredients
- 1 package (250g) tempeh, broken up into crumbly bits and chunks Ingredients
- 2 tbsp tamari Ingredients
- 3 tbsp maple syrup Ingredients
- 3 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil Ingredients
- Garnish: Sesame seeds, nori and chopped green onion Ingredients
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400F. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
- Using a fork, poke multiple holes into the sweet potatoes. Place sweet potatoes on to sheet pan. Bake for approximately 1 hour or until sweet potato is soft.
- Using your hands, break up tempeh with your hands. It's okay if you have some chunky bits. Place tempeh in a small bowl.
- To make the maple sauce, in a separate small bowl combine tamari, maple syrup and extra-virgin olive oil. Stir together.
- Pour maple sauce over top of tempeh and stir till all the tempeh is coated.
- Heat a fry pan on the stove top to medium with some extra-virgin olive oil. Add tempeh mixture and toss until warmed.
- Slit the baked sweet potatoes down the middle and press with your fingers to open (wait a few minutes so you don't burn your fingers!) and create a little pocket to stuff the tempeh mixture into.
- Divide the tempeh mixture evenly between 3 baked sweet potatoes. If you're really hungry, feel free to divide between 2 sweet potatoes.
- Top with some sea veggies like nori, sesame seeds and chopped green onion. Enjoy right away or refrigerate for up to 5 days.
