Wholesome Asian greens bowl with marinated tempeh drizzled with tahini! I test out A LOT of sweets in my kitchen but sometimes I just want a real savoury meal with lots of greens! And I definitely want a proper savoury meal to fill me up so I don’t snack aimlessly on cake haha. This dish will definitely fill you up, thanks to the carbs from the brown/red rice, good fats from the avocado and protein from the tempeh.
I marinated the tempeh with coconut aminos and baked it in the oven for ease. If I can bake something rather than saute it, I’m 100% there! I paired it with blanched veggies, drizzled it with straight tahini and created my perfect meal!
I eat a very simplified version of this on a day-to-day basis… that means, I’ll just have 1-2 greens, some sort of plant-based protein and carbs/rice if I’m lucky. Feel free to mix and match vegetables with this recipe!
I hope you enjoy this simple recipe!

Thanks so much Ruth! Let me know how you go 🙂
Another lovely recipe Anthea – thank you. I look forward to trying it very soon….maybe tomorrow?
A long time ago when I was on holiday I bought a “rainbow vegetable slice” and it was so delicious. I’m not very creative in the kitchen (I prefer to garden : )) so I was wondering if you could come up with a similar recipe….the criteria,lots of veg, make it delicious (of course) and pretty : ) Well your recipes always look divine and so pretty….not to mention that they taste pretty good too. So not too hard a challenge : )
I hope that your days are filled with rainbows. Angela X
