Autumn Vegetable Glazed Tempeh Bake

I’ve been diggin’ this easy, one pan veggie tempeh bake all week. It’s hearty, delicious and super simple to throw together over grains or a salad any day. You could use any variation of squashes or potatoes in this dish, and also sub in mushrooms, beans or tofu instead of tempeh. I feel like I’ve been neglecting tempeh these past few months, and also slightly lacking in the protein department, so expect to see it in more recipes soon!

1 yellow onion, chopped

8 oz multi-grain organic tempeh, cubed

3 tbsp organic tamari

1 tbsp pure maple syrup

4 cloves garlic, minced

½ tbsp minced ginger
