12 Kickass Vegan Tempeh Recipes

Tempeh is my favourite soy product.

That’s right – it’s not tofu, even though half of the recipes on this blog has tofu in it. Heh.

So of course, I gotta do a list of some awesome, vegan tempeh recipes! I have to trick you guys into liking tempeh, you see 😉

Unless you already love tempeh, then woohoo! This will be like, tempeh heaven for you. Lol.

Without further ado, let’s begin the tempeh foodporn :p

1. Vegan Chicken Wings

Um. Tempeh. Barbecue sauce. Bite-sized. Need I say anymore?

2. Spaghetti With Tempeh Vegan Ragù And Toasted Panko

How creative is this?! Sounds absolutely delicious – and seems like it would be a great way to introduce a tempeh virgin to tempeh!

3. Tempeh Cauliflower Butternut in Teriyaki Sauce (Date Sweetened)

Tempeh and rice is such a classic combination – can’t go wrong with that.

4. Barbecue Ranch Tempeh Burgers

Aww yes. Look at that tempeh burger patty! Don’t tell me that doesn’t look good to you?!

5. Smoky Black Eyed Pea Soup With Tempeh And Spinach

Is it me or is this like the ultimate protein soup or something? Lol. Spinach + black eyed peas + tempeh = protein win!

6. Easy Cauliflower And Tempeh Rice Roll (Pan-Fried)

Bored of healthy rice rolls? You should totally try this super delicious didn’t-even-try-to-be-healthy tempeh and cauliflower rice rolls!

7. Hungarian Stuffed Cabbage With Mushroom And Tempeh

This is such a super ingenious way to use tempeh, I just had to put it in this list! If you need a fancy way to use tempeh or if you have someone to impress, or I guess if you need to force someone to eat cabbage – this would be totally perfect.

8. Orange Glazed Tempeh Tacos

Missing orange chicken? Don’t worry – orange glazed tempeh is a great cruelty-free alternative. Plus tacos?! C’mon. You can’t resist tacos!

9. Smoky Tempeh & Roasted Sweet Potato Hash

Love the idea of pairing tempeh with sweet potato – the rich taste of the tempeh would totally complement the sweetness of the sweet potato!

10. Apricot Tempeh

Apricots and tempeh?!?! This is one of those things I would’ve never thought of but sounds absolutely delicious now that I know of it. Lol.

11. Vegan Tempeh Bacon (Baked not Fried!)

Of course, we can’t forget the tempeh bacon – I could probably eat a whole block of tempeh if you serve it to me like this!

12. Buffalo Tempeh Salad With Cashew Ranch Dressing

Alright guys, this is how you make me eat salad. Lol.

Just eating raw green stuff really isn’t my thing, but throw in some tempeh and you’ve got my attention.
