Peppery Tempeh Salad

Peppery Tempeh Salad
Heather Nicholds, C.H.N.

The tempeh makes a meal out of a salad, and the greens give the body enzymes and nutrients to help break down the dense nutrients of the bean. Top it with some ginger, which helps stimulate the digestive system, and you have a excellent source of energy without weighing you down.
