Tempeh Reuben Sandwich

Tempeh is an organic fermented soy product, very high in protein and considered to be a great replacement to meat.

             This a much healthier alternative to the original Reuben sandwich for us non-meat eaters.

                                             Everyone who has tried these, LOVE them!

Ingredients:

1- 8 oz. package of Tempeh

Organic Sauerkraut

Avocado

Rye Bread

Marinade:

1/2 cup vegetable broth

1 tbs. Dijon Mustard

2 tbs. Coconut Amino Acids or Soy Sauce

1 tbs. Maple Syrup

Prepare your marinade in a small bowl and set aside.

Cut and slice Tempeh (see pic), oil a cast-iron skillet (preferred) and brown each side over med-high heat. When browned, add marinade and let it sizzle!  Turn down heat to simmer.  The tempeh will soak up the sauce which will be a sticky paste in 5-6 minutes.

Mix all together.

Brush olive oil and garlic powder on your slices of Rye bread and put in a toaster oven to toast.  To assemble your sandwich: apply sauce to bread, add tempeh, sliced avocado (cheese replacement) and load it up with sauerkraut.  ENJOY!
