Optional: mustardvegan mayonnaise, or your favorite sandwich spread
Instructions
Marinate the tempeh slices in soy sauce for at least 30 minutes.
Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the tempeh slices and cook until golden brown on both sides, about 3-5 minutes per side.
Lightly toast the bread slices.
Assemble the sandwich: Spread mustard or vegan mayonnaise on one side of the bread (if using), then layer lettuce, tomato slices, cooked tempeh, and avocado slices. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Top with the other slice of bread, cut in half, and serve immediately.
Notes
Marinate the tempeh in your favorite sauce for at least 30 minutes before cooking to enhance its flavor.
• Grill or pan-fry the tempeh to add a smoky flavor and improve its texture.
• Use ripe avocados for the best creaminess.
• Toast the bread lightly for extra crunch and to prevent it from getting soggy.
• Layer the ingredients thoughtfully to balance flavors and textures in every bite.
