Vegan Barbecue Baked Tempeh Recipe

A quick and easy method for making barbecue baked tempeh to use in vegetarian sandwiches, burritos, or just to enjoy plain with rice. If you've ever had baked tofu, you know that it can be one of the most delicious ways imaginable to enjoy a meat substitute, and tempeh is no different. Just like making baked tofu, baked tempeh is relatively quick and easy, and needs just a few simple ingredients and it makes for a high-protein and low-fat dinner entree or snack that just about everyone likes. This simple recipe bakes tempeh in a bit of thinned out barbecue sauce. Because there's little flavor added, aside from the barbecue sauce, this is a recipe where you want to use a good quality barbecue sauce (hint: read the ingredients list and if one of the first things listed is high fructose corn syrup, put it back on the shelf and pick out something better). If you like things a bit meaty, you might also want to add in a dab of liquid smoke to this recipe, if you happen to have some on hand.
