Tempeh Fajitas

: Tempeh Strip Fajitas

You will need:

Sprouted grain tortillas

Tempeh strips (I prefer the smoky maple flavored)

Coconut oil

Cherry tomatoes

Green onions

Green bell pepper

Vidalia onion

Your favorite herbs and spices, sea salt, fresh ground pepper

1. Over medium heat, sautee the onions until soft in the coconut oil.

2. Turn off the heat and add the green bell pepper, the tomatoes, and the green onions. Let vegetables warm in the pan while it cools, tossing a few times. Add spices and toss again.

3. While the vegetables are being warmed, and in a toaster oven or regular oven, gently heat the tortillas with low heat just enough to make them soft, but not toasted.

4. Layer the tempeh and goat cheese onto the tortilla. Add a layer of the vegetables and fold the tortilla in half.

5. On a griddle or skillet, dry-cook the tortilla, pressing firmly a few times to flatten it. Turn over and do the same on the other side.

6. Divide into pizza-shape slices and serve with a vegetable side.

Millet Rice Cereal

Nature’s Path makes a great cold cereal from Millet (an ancient grain), whole oat flour, brown rice flour, and other goodies. Combined with UNSWEETENED almond milk, and a few raspberries, this makes an excellent alternative to wheat-based cereals! You can find this cereal in the organic section of many grocery stores, or at Whole Foods or other health food stores. Opt for organic cereals made from brown rice, millet, and other alkaline ingredients.Note- to check out Nature’s Path Millet Rice cereal, click on this link:
