Open-Faced Toasted Tempeh Sandwich

Open Faced Toasted Tempeh Sandwich

No bread? No problem. Rip turns tempeh itself into the toast for this ridiculously simple open-faced sandwich. Slice it in half lengthwise, pop it right in the toaster, then pile it high with Plant Strong chili, creamy avocado and whatever fresh toppings you have on hand.

Tempeh brings protein and fiber to the plate, while beans, avocado and fresh vegetables turn a few simple ingredients into a satisfying meal with almost no prep. It’s exactly the kind of real-food shortcut we love: easy, versatile and made for real life.

Tempeh is the toast in this quick Plant Strong meal. Toast it until warm and lightly crisp, then load it up with hearty chili, creamy avocado and your favorite fresh toppings. With protein- and fiber-rich tempeh as the base, it’s a simple, satisfying way to get a whole-food meal on the table in minutes.

Ingredients

  • Thinly sliced red onion, optional

  • Chopped fresh cilantro, optional

  • Sliced jalapeño, optional

  3. Transfer the toasted tempeh to a plate.

  4. Spoon warm chili generously over each piece.

  5. Top with sliced avocado and any additional toppings you like, such as red onion, cilantro or jalapeño.
