Ingredients
1 packet Panda brand sauce for orange chicken1 small onion1 small red bell pepper1/2 cup canned crushed pineapple1 package (212.5 grams) tempeh, I used Wildwood brand21 baby carrots (or about 2 cups worth)4 cups cooked white rice1/4 cup (4 Tablespoons) silvered almonds for garnish
Directions
Fill a large bowl with about 1/2 an inch of water and put the tempeh on top. Cook in the microwave for 5 minutes. (You can skip this part, but pre-cooking the tempeh makes it easier to digest). Meanwhile, chop all the veggies except for the baby carrots, which will be left whole.

In a microwave vegetable steaming bowl (I use a plastic one with a lid that has a little strainer on the bottom), place about 1/4 inch of water on the bottom and put your vegetables inside. Cook on high until just done, about 5 minutes.

When the tempeh is cool enough to handle, chop it into cubes. In a large bowl, add the tempeh, vegetables and canned pineapple. Pour the sauce over everything and stir. Microwave for 3 minutes, until heated through.

Serve with 1 cup of rice (I used white) and garnish with 1 Tablespoon of silvered almonds for each serving.
