Ingredients
for the salad:
- 1 block tempeh (about 6 oz)
- Cooking spray (or olive oil)
- 1/3 cup buffalo sauce
- 4 cups greens
- 1 cup chopped cherry tomatoes
- 1/2 a cucumber , sliced
- 1/4 cup diced onion
- 1/2 cup shredded carrots
for the dressing:
- 2 tablespoon tahini
- Juice of 1/2 a lemon (about 1 tablespoon)
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Water to thin (I used about 1/4 cup)
Instructions
- Heat a skillet over medium heat. Once hot, spray with cooking spray.
- Cut the tempeh into whatever shapes you want. I went with triangles, but you could also do strips or cubes.
- Add the tempeh into the pan and cook until browned on one side, about 2 minutes. Flip and cook for another 2 minutes until browned on the other side.
- Add the buffalo sauce and stir together. Cook for another minute until the buffalo sauce has fully coated the tempeh. Set aside.
- Assemble the salads. Place half of the greens into two bowls. Top with half of the remaining ingredients and finish with half of the tempeh.
- Whisk together the dressing ingredients until smooth. Drizzle over the salads and enjoy!
