Vegan Tempeh Burger with Portobello Bun : Lower Carb Recipe

As regular readers know, this blog brings a variety of articles, studies, thoughts, music and recipes! It is presented in a magazine style - we hope something for everyone. Our main focus is about the Low Carb Higher (Healthy) Fat lifestyle, LCHF for short, and you can read/find out more about that here 

In recent months we have seen that more and more we have regular readers, and followers, who choose to eat vegetarian or vegan. With that in mind I am passing on this recipe suggestion from Naomi Sherman who says … "you’ll need two hands to tuck into this incredible vegan burger. Tender, juicy and flavourful tempeh patties are topped with juicy fixings and cradled between an easy Portobello mushroom bun. Low-carb, yes, but it's high protein, nutrients, and flavour, too!"

Ingredients:
