Fody's BBQ Tempeh Sandwich with Parsnip Fries
This easy lunch idea is packed with plant-based protein + tons of flavor thanks to Fody's Original BBQ Sauce! We served this sandwich with a side of parsnip fries + Fody’s Ketchup for extra deliciousness.
Fody's BBQ Tempeh Sandwich Ingredients:
- 1 block of tempeh (approx. 200g)
- 1/4 cup of Fody's original BBQ sauce
- 4 slices of gluten-free or sourdough bread
- 1 Tbsp mustard
- 1/4 avocado
- 2 tomato slices
- 4 lettuce leaves
- 8 thinly sliced cucumber rounds
- handful of sprouts or microgreens
- salt + pepper, to taste
- 2 medium parsnips
- 1 Tbsp Fody's garlic olive oil
- 2 Tbsp Fody's ketchup
Directions for Fody's BBQ Tempeh Sandwich
Bring a pot with a small amount of water to a boil with a steamer basket on top. Place block of tempeh in steamer basket for 10 mins, flipping halfway. Remove tempeh from steamer. Rinse + pat dry.
Slice tempeh into thin ~1/4-inch strips. Place in a container + toss in BBQ sauce until well coated. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hrs or overnight.
Preheat oven to 375F. Line a baking sheet with parchment + place marinated tempeh on top. Reserve remaining BBQ sauce for later. Bake tempeh in the oven for 20-25 mins, making sure not to burn. Remove from oven + brush with any leftover BBQ sauce.
Divide ingredients evenly + assemble sandwiches. Spread mustard + mash avocado on either end of the bread before adding the rest of the ingredients.
IF MAKING PARSNIP FRIES: peel parsnips + remove hard ends. Cut into thin 1/2-inch thick strips (the size of fries!) Place on a baking sheet + toss in olive oil, salt + pepper. Remove tempeh from the oven when done + raise the heat to 475F. Bake parsnips for approx. 15 mins, tossing halfway + making sure not to burn. Serve with ketchup for dipping!
