Eat Bacon That is Healthy Try Tempeh Bacon
Do you miss eating bacon?
Bacon is a popular protein dish in America, but I have something healthier; it’s high in protein and great for your gut.

Macronutrients: (Serving Size 2)

Ingredients:
- 6 oz Tempeh @lightlifefoods
- 2 cups (215g) Shredded Lettuce
- 1/4 cup Chopped Tomatoes
- 1/4 cup Chopped Purple Onions
- 1 tbsp Corn Starch
Marinade:
- 1 tbsp Black Pepper
- 1 tbsp Smoked Paprika
- 1/4 tsp Cumin
- 1/2 tsp Vegan Bouillon
- 1/2 tsp Liquid Smoke
- 1 tsp White Vinegar
- 1/2 tbsp Nutritional Yeast
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 cup calorie free maple syrup @servivita_usa
Directions:
Prepare the marinade first by taking all the ingredients for the marinade and mixing it all in a mixing bowl.
Chop the tempeh into thin slices and do a light coat for both sides of the tempeh in corn starch.
Spray a nonstick pan with olive oil on medium heat and place the tempeh strips and fry both sides.
Once both sides have a golden color, brush the marinade on the tempeh and caramelize both sides.
Place oven on 400 degrees and a baking pan. Place the tempeh on a baking pan and let it bake for the crisp, for about 2 – 5 mins.
Prepare your salad, place tempeh bacon on top, and you’re ready to go.
I hope you enjoy it!
