Tempeh (Faux Chicken) Salad - with Basil
Ingredients:
1-2 tbsps olive oil
1 (8 oz) package tempeh
1 tbsp tamari or soy sauce
1/4-1/2 cup vegan mayo (like Veganaise)
1/2 cup finely sliced green onions
2 heaping tbsps chopped parsley (about 1/2 cup)
1/2 cup grated carrot
2 tbsp chopped fresh basil
Directions:
Cut tempeh into small bite-sized squares. Saute the tempeh in the oil in a wok or heavy skillet until it turns golden, about 5 minutes...be patient, you want it golden. Turn off the heat and stir in the tamari to coat the tempeh evenly. Place the tempeh in a bowl and add the chopped vegetables and the mayo and mix well. This is delicious as a salad on a bed of lettuce or as a sandwich filling.
