My first-ever attempt to prepare tempeh and it was just great. The marinating is the key, and broiling until crisp. I didn't have plain yogurt and I didn't want onion, so mine was more like a TLT in a pita.

    This is one of the best ways I've had tempeh. It really took advantage of its flavor and texture. Great recipe!

    This was pretty good. I got it extra crispy and the meat eaters in my family liked it a lot. I made a vegan tzatziki to go with it, yum!
