    I also never crave doughnuts, which is surprising given how much I love bread, cake and pizza and well, generally anything a bakery might produce!

    I've never tried tempeh. Is it something I should be craving? Am I missing out?

    I marinated and smoked some tempeh yesterday. It's really good, and if it didn't have calories, I'd make a few pounds and have me a feast.

    I love Tempeh!!! Yummmm!

    I thought it would turn out ok, and I underestimated. It was really good. I will make it again. I think I left it on the smoke 90 to 120 minutes. I had only planned about an hour, but it was pretty cool in there. Next time I will steam it first before I marinade it. I think it will make it moister, and I think it will get it to soak up the lemony, sesame, garlicky, and spicy marinade.

    Missing out? Maybe. I like it. Some people might not. On its own, it can be bland. Some people don't like beets; I love them, too. It's a fermented soy product. The fermentation allegedly eliminates phytoestrogens that are found in soy products like tofu and soy milk. The beans are briefly cooked and then inoculated with a culture of a Rhizopus fungus. The fermentation makes the tempeh form a cake that holds together, and it makes the soybeans more digestable. It's a good plant source of protein. It takes on other flavors. In the winter, I cube it, marinate it briefly, and roast it in a convection oven when I roast vegetables. You can also stir fry it, and a popular dish I see at some local restaurants is a spicy version stir fried with vegetables and goes under various names. Look up "Sesame tempeh" for recipe ideas.

    I am fortunate that a major manufacturer of soy foods is about an hour from where I live. They make tofu and tempeh. Sometimes I buy their multi-grain tempeh that also has brown rice and millet in addition to soy. They also make an "Italiano" version that is the multigrain version with added herbs and spices and is more "ready to eat" or "ready to cook."

    I agree. Even with my enormous sweet tooth, I think I'd have to pass. :) BUT a simple slice of carrot cake heavy on the cream cheese frosting would make me happy for breakfast right now. :)

    I want to eat all of the pizza. I'm not even eating meat at the moment, but I'll eat the pepperoni if it means I get all of the melty cheese. I feel that rationally the cheese and grease should gross me out, but emotionally, it talks to my soul. I love, love pizza.
