Agave-Lime Tempeh
with Peppers, Onion and Potatoes
This dish at first glance looks like it might be on the heavier side but as soon as you taste it the sweet citrus flavors with a hint of chili spice really lightens the dish up. This is a perfect dish for any time of the year.

Yay! I just got some tempeh (had to make a 45 minute drive to get some) & I have all of these ingredients. Going to make this for dinner tonight.
Wow the Agave-Lime Tempeh dish looked so delicious, especially over quinoa or brown rice. Yum!
