    Serves: 2

    • 4 ounces tempeh, cut into ½-inch cubes
    • 2 teaspoons olive oil
    • 1 ½ cups small broccoli florets
    • ½ cup diced yellow onions
    • ½ cup diced carrots
    • 2 leaves kale, stemmed and chopped (about 1 ½ cups)
    • ¼ cup chopped pitted olives of choice
    • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
    • 1 tablespoon tamari
    • 1 tablespoon nutritional yeast flakes
    • 1 teaspoon dried basil or Italian seasoning blend
    • ¼ teaspoon sea salt
    • ⅛ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

    Place the tempeh and olive oil in a large skillet and cook over medium heat for 2 minutes, stirring often. Add the broccoli, onions, and carrots and cook and stir for 3 minutes.

    Add all of the remaining ingredients, cook and stir for 2 to 3 minutes longer or until the kale begins to wilt. Taste and adjust the seasonings as desired. Serve hot.
