Tempeh Reuben Recipe
A quick, easy and delicious vegetarian sandwich.
Ingredients
- 8 oz package tempeh
- 2 T tamari
- 1/3 C red wine vinegar
- 1/3 C water
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1/4 t caraway seed
- 1/4 t dill weed
- 1 t onion powder
- 1 t paprika
- mustard or thousand island dressing (I mix my own with veggie mayo and ketchup)
- rye bread or favorite sprouted bread
- sauerkraut
- swiss cheese
Directions
- Slice tempeh in half crosswise, slice those pieces in half as if splitting a cake into layers.You should have four equal pieces.
- In a shallow baking dish, combine tamari, vinegar, water, garlic, pepper, caraway, dill, onion powder and paprika.
- Add tempeh slices; marinate at least 20 minutes or overnight, turning tempeh occasionally.
- Heat tempeh in pan (cast iron is great) with a touch of olive oil until browned slightly, adding marinade as needed.
- Spread dressing on bread, add tempeh, sauerkraut and cheese and add remaining slice of bread. (Or make open face)
- They are also delicious toasted in oven so cheese melts a bit.
- Enjoy!
