BBQ Tempeh Sloppy Joes
From: Kaitlin M @ www.thegardengrazer.com/
If you've never tried tempeh before, this is a great recipe to introduce you to this awesome food. Get ready because these sandwiches really live up to their name - they are sloppy to the max! My husband says he's going to start eating them open faced with a fork. Not a bad idea. Although I can't help but think your fingers will be left with no BBQ-y goodness to lick off when you're done
Whatever your method of consumption, enjoy this tasty remake!
Ingredients
8 oz. package tempeh (I use organic 3 grain from Trader Joe's)
1 cup BBQ sauce (I use Bold & Smoky Kansas City style from Trader Joe's)
1 green bell pepper
1 small onion
1/2 cup vegetable broth
4 hamburger buns
Directions
Cut tempeh in half, and steam for 10 minutes. (*This step can be omitted, but I've read it helps to remove a "bitter" taste.)
After it cools, crumble tempeh in a bowl.
Add BBQ sauce and let marinate for at least 15 minutes, more if you have time.
Meanwhile, dice onion and bell pepper.
Saute onion, bell pepper over medium heat in a large skillet for 10-15 minutes or until soft.
Add BBQ tempeh and broth.
Mix well.
Bring to simmer, cover, reduce heat, and lightly simmer for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Pile onto hamburger buns and enjoy!
