Bring vibrant energy to your lunch with this grilled tempeh bowl. It combines nutty, charred protein with crisp seasonal vegetables and a silky ginger-tahini dressing for a meal that feels as good as it tastes.
This balanced bowl features protein-rich tempeh marinated in savory tamari and grilled until golden. Paired with fresh greens, quinoa, and a ginger-tahini drizzle, it provides sustained energy and clean, satisfying nutrition.
Steam your tempeh for 8 minutes before marinating. This removes the natural bitterness and helps the protein absorb the marinade flavors much more effectively.
