Italian Tempeh Sausage

I've had a thing for tempeh for awhile now and feel it's been a delicious substitute for those recipes that call for meat. Below is a recipe for Italian "sausage". All measurements are estimates - I don't use measuring spoons that often and feel you should season as you please ☺️.

I added this batch to our family favorite, homemade pizzas, using fresh chopped veggies, marinara and Simple Mill's pizza dough mix. I did have some left over (which is even better the next day).
