Tempeh BLT (TLT) image

Before I became a vegetarian, I used to love BLTs. Here is a great alternative to BLTs with all the flavor and none of the meat. While tempeh has a texture different from bacon, I like it better than any of the fake bacon products I've tried.

I wasn't a fan of the tempeh in this sandwich. I thought it was a bit too chewy.

This sandwich was a bit too dry for my taste. I think I'll add some avocado or hummus next time.

This sandwich is the perfect combination of flavors and textures. The tempeh is crispy and savory, the bacon is smoky and salty, and the lettuce and tomato are fresh and juicy.
