"Slow cooking in the crock pot allows the flavors of this goulash to mellow and blend, and the tempeh gets a chance to absorb some of the sauce."

I followed the recipe exactly and this turned out really well. Even my carnivore husband liked it. I have never used tofu as a puree before but it was really creamy and good. Prep was super easy, I was able to start it before I went to work so it was nice to come home to a ready to eat supper. I will def be making this one again!<br/><br/>On a side not i also have a 6qt slow cooker and on the low setting this was done in just under 9 hours, and it did burn my crock pot. Next time I will use a liner, but it will possibly cook in about 8.

This turned out pretty good. I love that there was not a lot of prep, it was low fat and the creamy sauce is soy based. It was, however, a little bland and it burned on the sides of the crock at the minimum time. Maybe it was supposed to be for a smaller crock (mine is 6 qt)? Anyway, we liked it and would make again with some additional flavors added. Thanks for posting!
