Salad works really well with Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, and Gruener Veltliner. Sauvignon Blanc and Gruner Veltliner both have herby notes that complement salads with enough acid to match tart vinaigrettes, while a Chardonnay can be a good pick for creamy salad dressings. The Elway's Reserve Carneros Chardonnay Wine with a 4.7 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 38 dollars per bottle.

Elway's Reserve Carneros Chardonnay Wine

The 2014 Elway's Reserve Carneros Chardonnay is well-balanced, exhibiting crisp tropical fruit, apple and pear flavors with light floral elements. Hints of vanilla complement a smooth, lingering oak finish.

Instructions

Cut tempeh into cubes, then marinate in a mixture of shoyu and agave for 15 minutes. Squeeze out excess liquid, reserving it, and roll the nuggets in the arrowroot powder. Keep rolling nuggets until all the arrowroot powder has been incorporated by the Tempeh. Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a frying pan and fry the tempeh over medium heat until light golden brown. Watch very carefully not to over brown, turning each square of tempeh over, and then over again until done. Spoon out any left over oil and discard. Add 1/4 cup water plus the left over shoyu and agave liquid from Step 1, and cook until absorbed, stirring occasionally. Set aside. Bring the pasta water to a boil. Boil the pasta for 8 minutes (look at box directions). Drain in a colander and rinse under cold water. Sprinkle pasta with 1 tsp. olive oil and juice of 1 lemon. Mix carefully not to break pasta noodles. Sprinkle lightly with salt and set aside. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil in a frying pan over medium heat and saute the onions for 2 minutes. Then add the carrot, celery and yellow squash. Saute for a few minutes. Lightly sprinkle with salt and pepper. Mix tempeh with your carrot, celery and yellow squash mixture. TO SERVE: Arrange 2 plates with 1/2 of the red lettuce. On top of each bed of lettuce put 1/2 of the pasta. On top of the pasta spoon over the Tempeh/Vegetable mixture. Garnish with chopped parsley. Serve with Sesame Lime Dressing on the side.
