Vegan Affairs Recipe 1/2:

Makes 2 scant cups

Talk about comfort food. This crazy easy recipe is crazy delicious and is really not that sloppy after all. A compassionate take on the original Sloppy Joe, Sloppy Leo is the namesake of, well, me – a huge fan of the best tempeh ever. The taste and texture of the tempeh is splendidly paired with some of the best BBQ sauce you will ever taste. Locally produced, all plant-based and scrumscios…could you possibly ask for more?

Ingredients

  • 8 oz Tempeh Tantrum tempeh*, grated

  • 7 oz Triple Crown BBQ Sauce, Classic*

  • ¾ c diced white onion

  • 1 large clove garlic, minced

  • 2 T low-flavor oil

Instructions

  1. Heat the oil in a skillet and sauté onion and garlic just until they become translucent. Add the tempeh and cook until it just starts to brown. Add sauce and heat just until hot enough to eat. 

  2. Serve on your favorite bread, open-faced or closed. It is also great over raw zucchini noodles, rice or any other grain pilaf of your choice.
