Grilled Tempeh Veggie Burgers image

This protein-rich vegetarian (vegan) recipe is from "Cooking Light Magazine". Chill the tempeh well before slicing so it will be less apt to crumble. This recipe requires at least 3 hours of marinating, the longer the better. Serve with whole-grain burger buns, and whatever toppings you enjoy!
