Another classic made plant-based. This tempeh BLT is as satisfying as the original. Pan-fried bacon, vegan mayo, toasty whole grain bread, crispy romaine lettuce and heirloom tomatoes, if you can find them, make this sandwich seriously good.
If you've been missing this classic because you've given up bacon, give it a try. And, you know you're making the right decision to eat less meat with the recent announcement from the World Health Organization that processed meats are cancer causing.
