Tempeh B.L.T. Sandwich Recipe

Tempeh B.L.T. Sandwich Recipe

  • 1 batch Tempeh Bacon
  • 2 cups cherry tomatoes (about 10 ounces), halved
  • 2 tablespoons regular or vegan mayonnaise
  • 4 slices sourdough bread, grilled or toasted
  • 1/2 large avocado, thinly sliced just before serving
  • 1/4 cup basil leaves, coarsely torn
  • 2 crisp romaine leaves
  1. Prepare marinade for Tempeh Bacon in a shallow dish, adding tomatoes along with tempeh. Cover and chill at least 2 hours or up to 4.
  2. Preheat oven to 400°F and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Arrange tempeh on one-half of sheet and tomatoes on remaining half in a single layer. Bake, tossing tempeh and basting with marinade after 10 minutes, until tempeh is crispy and tomatoes are shrunken and sweet, 30–33 minutes.
  3. Divide mayonnaise between 2 slices of bread. Top with tempeh and roasted tomatoes. Arrange avocado slices, basil, and romaine over, then top with remaining slices to close sandwich.
