This vegan recipe is packed with vegetables, plant-based protein and fiber. Tempeh,  a “cake” made of fermented soybeans, is known for its pleasantly nutty flavor. It also happens to be great for gut health, thanks to its high concentration of both probiotics and prebiotics (fiber). Soy is an excellent source of plant-based protein, which is essential for health when you consume a vegan or vegetarian diet. Enjoy this “fried” rice on its own or as a side at lunch or dinner!
