Virtual reality, tragic comedy, jumbo shrimp, living dead. All of these are apparent opposites that somehow go together, as does the flavors on this dish! It uses yummy Tempeh and the tangy flavor is just like you get in a Chinese restaurant. It’s quick to whip up. The only time consumer is if you use brown rice, which is my rice of choice. That takes a while to cook. However, I have a super duper rice cooker that makes that a breeze. Pop the rice and water in, hit the button and it its cooked to perfection every time. Totally hands off. Brown rice takes about an hour and 40 minutes so I just stick it in a couple hours before I start the meal.

These buggers are expensive. But if you cook rice much and have the cash they are SO worth it. Perfect hands off rice cooking EVERY time!

Add in the tempeh, pineapple, garlic and the green pepper. Cook 5 or 10 minutes until it starts to brown. Stir up the sauce you set aside and pour over ingredients in the pan.
