Ingredients

  • 16 oz tempeh
  • 2 tbsp taco seasoning
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 12 corn tortillas
  • 2 avocado
  • 2 tbsp lime juice
  • ¼ cup cilantro
  • 1 garlic clove
  • 2 tbsp water
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ red onion (optional)
  • ½ cup salsa (optional)

Steps

  1. Crumble the tempeh into small pieces. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat and add the crumbled tempeh. Cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned, about 5-7 minutes.
  2. Stir in the taco seasoning and 2 tablespoons of water. Continue to cook for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the tempeh to absorb the flavors.
  3. For the avocado crema, combine avocados, lime juice, cilantro, garlic clove, and salt in a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth and creamy.
  4. Warm the corn tortillas according to package directions.
  5. Assemble the tacos by filling each tortilla with the seasoned tempeh. Drizzle generously with avocado crema.
  6. Garnish with thinly sliced red onion or salsa, if desired.
