Ingredients
  

  • 1 package tempeh
  • 2 carrots
  • 1 english cucumber
  • 1 tomato
  • ¼ cup balsamic vinegar
  • 1 shallot (minced)
  • 2 tablespoon date syrup
  • 1 handful spring mix
  • 2 tablespoon vegan cream cheese my favorite is Kite Hill
  • 4 slices whole wheat or gluten-free bread

Instructions
 

  • Add date syrup, balsamic vinegar, minced shallot, and 2 tablespoon water together in a shallow bowl. Cut your tempeh in half and place in the bowl to marinate. Alternatively you can place in a plastic bad.
  • While the tempeh is marinating, prepare your other vegetables. Peel the carrots, cut the cucumber and tomato.
  • Add the marinated tempeh and marinade to a sauté pan and cook for about 15 minutes. The marinade should be absorbed by the tempeh. Remove from heat.
  • Toast the bread. Once toasted add the vegan cream cheese and assemble your other vegetables onto the sandwich along with the cooked tempeh. Serve and enjoy!
