Spicy Sloppy Joes With Tempeh

This flavorful, easy-to-make entrée swaps tempeh for the traditional ground beef, with lots of garlic and onions simmered in a rich tomato sauce. Our version is pleasantly spicy; skip the jalapeño pepper to dial down the heat. Serve it with a side salad of arugula, avocado cubes, and pumpkin seeds for extra prostate protection.
