Buffalo Tempeh Salad

I’m loving all the new uses I’m finding for tempeh. It’s quickly moving up to being my favorite meat alternative, or at least in the top 5.

My latest tasty tempeh creation: Buffalo Tempeh Salad with blue cheese crumbles and blue cheese yogurt dressing

I tore off a hunk of baguette Panera Bread style. Panera Bread’s baguette is better though. Much better.

• Bed of romaine lettuce, 1 medium-ish green bell pepper, and 1 small red onion tossed in 1 teaspoon EVOO (40 cal), 2 TBSP red wine vinegar (8 cal), and 2 TBSP Bolthouse Farms blue cheese yogurt dressing (50 cal)
• 1/3 block of multi-grain tempeh cut into bite-size pieces, microwaved for 1 minute, then tossed in Dave’s Gourmet hot sauce
• 1oz extra creamy Danish blue cheese crumbles (110 cal)
• Hunk of French baguette on side

Totally awesome! The tempeh tasted really good with hot sauce on it, and the blue cheese all throughout was fantastic. Very filling and a great chicken alternative. Yum! I’ll definitely make this again.

Going to finish my book now! Be back later…
