Ingredients

  • 6-8 Corn Tortillas
  • 1 8 Ounce Block Tempeh
  • 2 Medium Poblano Peppers
  • Pickled Red Onions
  • Lettuce
  • Vegetable Broth to cook

Tempeh Seasoning

  • 2 Tablespoons Liquid Aminos or Tamari
  • 1 Tablespoon Maple Syrup
  • 1 Tablespoon Lime Juice
  • 2 Teaspoons Garlic Powder
  • 2 Teaspoons Onion Powder

Poblano Crema

  • ½ Cup Non-Dairy Yogurt
  • 1 Medium Poblano Pepper
  • 2 Tablespoons Lime Juice
  • 1 Teaspoon Sriracha

Instructions

  • Crumble the tempeh into small chunks. Cook in a non-stick pan along with the tempeh seasoning ingredients. Cook 5-10 minutes, until warm. Set aside.
  • Slice the two poblanos for the tacos and pan-cook using a couple tablespoons of vegetable broth to prevent sticking. Cook 5 minutes until slightly browned.
  • Meanwhile make the crema. Add ¼ cup of the yogurt along with the poblano, lime juice and sriracha to a food processor. Blend until smooth, then stir in the remaining coconut yogurt.
  • Serve the tostadas. Place the tempeh and poblanos on a corn tortilla. Top with desired toppings like lettuce and pickled red onions. Drizzle with the crema. Enjoy!
