Grilled Tempeh Steaks

Tempeh is a complete protein food that contains all the essential amino acids. Tempeh maintains all the fiber of the beans and gains some digestive benefits from the enzymes created during the fermentation process.

1 package of Tempeh cut in half and then each half cut again so you have 4 tempeh steak slices
4 slices whole wheat toast (I use eskel bread)
vegan mayo
1 medium tomato sliced
fresh spinach leaves

Marinade

4 Tbs fresh ground chili paste
2 tsp soy sauce
3 tsp vegan ketchup
½ tsp garlic powder
½ tsp onion powder
4 Tbs olive oil

Mix all the marinade ingredients together.

Brush each tempeh steak with the marinade and put on the grill (marinade side face down). While grilling brush marinade on the other side. Grill on each side on medium heat until browned, about 10 minutes each side. You can grill these on the BBQ or in a pan sprayed with vegetable spray

Toast the wheat bread (I like to toast it on the grill rack – a couple of minutes on each side_ and spread on the mayo and then two slices tempeh steak, tomatoes and spinach
