Ingredients

1 cup water
⅓ (8 ounce) package tempeh, cut into bite-size pieces
3 cloves garlic, chopped
2 ounces whole wheat spaghetti, or to taste
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 pinch dried Italian seasoning, or more to taste
1 cup pasta sauce
⅓ cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Steps:

Combine water, tempeh, and garlic in a bowl; set aside to marinate, about 20 minutes.
Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook spaghetti in the boiling water, stirring occasionally until cooked through but firm to the bite, 12 to 15 minutes. Drain.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Strain tempeh and garlic from water and squeeze out excess water. Sprinkle tempeh with Italian seasoning. Add tempeh and garlic to the hot oil; saute until browned on all sides, 5 to 10 minutes.
Toss spaghetti, tempeh, pasta sauce, and mozzarella cheese together in a serving bowl.
