This Vegan Tempeh Sandwich is whole lot healthier than your traditional BLT, but you’re guaranteed to be just as satisfied after your plate is polished off.
Slice avocado in half, pit it and use a fork to mash the flesh to make it spreadable. Spread about a quarter of avocado on a slice of bread, add a lettuce leaf and a slice of tomato following 2-3 vegan tempeh bacon strips. Cover with another slice of bread. Continue with the rest of the sandwiches. Enjoy!

Cook’s Tips
Make the vegan tempeh bacon in a large batch. It keeps well for up to a month in the fridge.
Toast the bread beforehand for an extra crunch.
For another smoky, vegan sandwich idea check out my vegan pulled jackfruit sandwich. Jackfruit is another plant-based meat alternative and wonder ingredient. Because of its soaking abilities, and its stringy, meat-like texture it makes a fantastic pulled pork substitute. I love it piled high on a toasted bun and served with a crisp coleslaw.
