Tempeh

Hammer:

 have you ever used tempeh in your cooking

I’m leaning towards a more vegetable diet (read not vegetarian) lol

Im fighting gout and the red meat is killing me

and I hate tofu but a friend or mine use to make these

outstanding sandwiches with tempeh. He would chop up

the tempeh and add in chopped onion and diced red bell

pepper and mayo and stir it all up then throw that on  fresh

hoagie rolls and a big heap of sprouts and eat till we were bloated

but anyway have you ever used it?

Dear Anon:

Another friend just told me about tempeh it looks interesting. I might give it a try.
 
Personally, I eat these  http://www.seeveggiesdifferently.com/product_detail.aspx?family=366&id=324 as well as their breakfast products.
I can’t get tofu to come out good at home but I eat it at thai places and they make it taste really good.
Portabella mushrooms are another protein option as well.
 
Gout is really painful. I got it once when I was up around 310 pounds. Once I took the weight off it got better but I still have to watch the fatty foods very carefully
 
If you try tempeh let me know how you like it, I’m always looking for new options.

Best regards,

Hammer
