how to make:

1. Preheat oven to 400˚F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. In a medium bowl, whisk to combine tamari, oil, syrup, jerk seasoning and salt. Cut Five
Grain Tempeh into ½” cubes, add to the bowl and toss until well coated. Marinate for at
least 10 minutes.

3. In a large skillet with a tight fitting lid over medium-high heat, warm oil. Stir in rice and
salt, stirring continuously until rice begins to toast and is lightly golden, about 3-5
minutes. Add coconut water, bring to a boil then reduce heat to low. Cover and cook for
20 minutes. Remove from heat and cool for 10 minutes, still covered. Remove lid, fluff
with a fork and stir in cilantro and lime juice.

4. Transfer tempeh to a baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes.

5. In a blender, add all ingredients for mango sauce (mango, water, tahini, lime juice,
ginger, salt and cayenne) and process until smooth.

6. Assemble bowls by placing scoops of rice in each bowl followed by tempeh, beans and
corn. Drizzle with mango-tahini sauce and sprinkle with green onion.
