I didn't add the full two cups of broth as it seemed not too thick. Maybe more tomato paste as well???  Flavor is tasty!

This is a truly delicious dish.  Break the tempeh into small pieces for the best texture.  You will love it!

Well I don't eat tempeh so my version subs chopped 1/4 cup or so chopped walnuts, 1 c finely diced mushrooms and 2 c riced cauliflower mixed with  1 TBS low sodium Soy Sauce, 1 Tbs Italian Seasoning, and 2 tsp Paprika and spread this mixture out on a parchment-lined baking sheet - baked in a 350 oven for about 30 minutes.

Then blend it in with the following and simmer for about 30 minutes. DELICious. From Brand New Vegan blogger.

 

1 med Onion (finely diced) ,1 rib Celery (finely diced), 1 large Carrot (shredded, 4 cloves Garlic (minced) ,1 cup White Wine or a substitution, 1 can San Marzano Tomatoes (28 oz) ,1 can Tomato Paste (6 oz), 1 cup Almond Milk (unsweetened), 1/4 cup Fresh Basil (freshly chopped) or some dried, 1 Tbs Oregano, 1 tsp Rubbed Sage, 1/4 tsp Pepper, 1/4 tsp Red Pepper Flakes, 1/4 tsp Nutmeg
