Tempeh Jambalaya

A hearty and flavorful vegan take on the classic Cajun dish, packed with protein-rich tempeh and a variety of vegetables.

Ingredients - Serves 4

Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
Add the tempeh and cook until browned on all sides, about 5 minutes. Remove from the pot and set aside.
In the same pot, add the onion, bell peppers, and garlic. Cook until the vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes.
Add the diced tomatoes, vegetable broth, rice, Cajun seasoning, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine.
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes, or until the rice is cooked.
Return the tempeh to the pot and stir to combine. Cook for an additional 5 minutes, or until the tempeh is heated through.
Serve the jambalaya hot, garnished with fresh parsley if desired.
