Breakfast for dinner

I had this block of tempeh in the freezer for a couple of months, and I was glad to have a recipe to use it up! I used an italian herb mix for all the green herbs in the recipe, and white flour instead of whole wheat. Also, inspired by Carla's post, a few shakes of liquid smoke.

Tempeh Sausages Patties

patties - I added some diced onion instead of onion powder. Somehow I missed the part of letting them refrigerate for an hour. No matter - they still worked!

Tempeh Sausages and Tofu Scramble

We ate them with some tofu scramble. Mmm... breakfast for dinner!

I liked these a lot. They reminded me of Gimme Lean sausages, which I heard is not going to be sold in Canada anymore. I may just have to stock up on tempeh!

heart-shaped multi-ethnic sausages

Hi gang! I made the Italian Tempeh Sausages recipe, with a few modifications. I steamed some tempeh:

Packed the mixture into my heart-shaped moulds. Baked them a bit, then pan fried them:


Put 2 patties in my lunch box with some mashed potatoes-peas-pesto:
