Tempeh Lettuce Wraps
Tempeh is my #1 favorite soy product. So today, I had some tempeh in the fridge and found it to be too irresistable to pass up for a yummy lunch. A tempeh, avocado and tomato sandwich was the first thing to come to mind, but...no bread! So I put on my clever vegan thinking cap and came up with these lettuce wraps. Here's how to make them: Simply marinade tempeh slices (I used the marinade from the tofu-veggie kabob post) for 5-10 minutes. Meanwhile, cut up some veggies (I used avocado and sauteed red/yellow bell peppers) and pre-heat a pan with a touch of olive oil in it. Lightly pan-fry the tempeh until brown 3-5 minutes each side. Fill the fresh, crisp lettuce leaves with some veggies and 1 or 2 tempeh slices. Fold in half like a soft taco and enjoy!

Oh lordy, Tempeh is god....and when paired with avocado? Forget about it! I personally love Green Cuisine's Indonesian tempeh, but any kind (except for mushroom...ewwwww) rocks my stripey socks!
She says oh lordy, too! I like mushrooms...one time I ate some and went to the LOTR:The Two Towers with my brother, Neil. He was swearing during the trailer for Dumb and Dumber-er. Doesn't Roxy like the soundtrack to Dumb and Dumber? The lady next to me smelled like really strong perfume. Anyway, Tempeh is good, end of story.
