jerk jackfruit (or jerk tempeh) bowl

Believe it or not, it was the nostalgia of Vigo's yellow rice that inspired this dish. Since we can't send you along your merry nutritional way with simply a bowl of yellow rice, we thought we'd get jerky about it and add the most delectable black beans, sautéed dense greens and authentically-spiced seared jackfruit. And, yes of course, our fabulous Chef Moya from Jamaica is in charge of the jerk marinade and seasoning. Can we say layers upon layers of flavor? You betcha.
