Ingredients

  • 1 8 oz package tempeh
  • 1 15 oz can black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 teaspoons olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 medium ripe tomato, chopped
  • 1/2 head green cabbage, shredded
  • 1/2 cup salsa
  • 8 hard or soft taco shells

Instructions

  • Crumble the tempeh in a medium sized mixing bowl and add the beans and spices. Mix well, adding water as needed if the mixture is dry (about 1/4 cup).
  • Heat the olive oil in a large pan and add in the garlic. Saute for 1 minute, until fragrant.
  • Add in the tempeh/black bean mixture, turn the heat down to medium-low and cook for 10 minutes, adding water if needed for texture (about 1/4 cup as needed).
  • Taste and season to taste. Serve the tempeh tacos with chopped tomato, green cabbage, salsa and any other topping you enjoy over hard or soft shells of your choice.
