My goal is to get leaner and now I know that all that eating out was sabotaging my goal. I am cooking more at home because you motivate me a lot. You make cooking so simple and realistic lol.

    I like this mcvegan idea! A good hack for making tempeh taste a little more indulgent and more like bacon is to first brown both sides of it in the pan. Then once both sides are brown turn down the heat and you hit it with some tamari/soy sauce and maple syrup. You cook that until it becomes a glaze on the tempeh. Tastes great in a sandwich!
