Tempeh Avocado Brownies
It's fair to say that brownies are DELICIOUS! hot or cold, served on their own or with fruit or ice cream, that's why we have created a high protein brownie using our Organic Impulse Tempeh as one of the core ingredients. Great for a post workout treat, a grab and go breakfast or an afternoon pick me up treat. This recipe makes 16 servings
