Bountiful Bells

We all know that sufficient protein is an essential part of a healthy diet. As a Vegan Vixen it can be a challenge to incorporate animal free protein into each meal. Tempeh is a delicious addition to any veggie based meal. Like tofu, it takes on the flavor of other ingredients which makes it super versatile. It takes on basil and soy notes in this recipe. Stuff this delish filling into some sweet bell peppers for a superb meal for two!
