Greek Tempeh Pitas image

This is by far my favourite way of eating tempeh. I am craving it right now! You can make it vegan by using vegan tzatziki.

greek pocketless pita

Steps:

  • Slice tempeh medium thin.
  • Marinate in olive oil, soy sauce, crushed garlic, dried oregano and lemon juice. After 1 hour (or longer) saute in frying pan until crispy.
  • Meanwhile mix diced tomatoes, cucumber, onion, garlic, balsamic vinegar and a drizzle of oil in a small bowl.
  • Heat pita on each side in frying pan.
  • To assemble, place pita on a plate, lay tempeh over pita, spoon on tomato and cucumber mixture and top with tzatziki.
  • I eat mine with a knife and fork, but my husband prefers to fold his in half and eat with his hands. Either way, this is my favourite tempeh dish!
