The CHEF TIPS:
  • Contains soy (tempeh and teriyaki sauce). Tempeh and teriyaki sauce can be a hidden source of common allergens, which include milk, peanuts, tree nuts, eggs, fish, shellfish, soy, wheat, and sesame.
  • Sesame can appear as an ingredient in food where it might not be expected (tempeh) and may be included in the ingredient statements as “spice” or “flavoring.”
  • Tempeh made with ingredients limited to soybeans (or other legumes), water, tempeh culture, and for some varieties vinegar, seasonings and herbs is creditable.
  • One oz of tempeh credits as 1 oz eq meat alternate. Tempeh made with other creditable ingredients (brown rice, sunflower seeds, vegetables, etc.) require a Child Nutrition label or Product Formulation Statement to document meal pattern contribution. For more information on serving tempeh, refer to the CACFP policy memorandum SP 25 CACFP 12 SFSP 11-2019 Revised “Crediting Tempeh in the Child Nutrition Programs” at fns.usda.gov/cacfp/policy.
  • Cauliflower rice is cauliflower that has been grated or cut into very small, rice-sized pieces.
