Notes
Tempeh measurements: I will typically use 1/4-1/2 of a batch of my homemade smoky tempeh bacon strips on a large sandwich (anywhere from 7-14 strips depending on how much bacon I want). You can also use 3-4 strips of store-bought Lightlife smoky tempeh strips. Note that their strips are a lot longer so you can use less.
Time required for this recipe does not include making your own tempeh bacon strips.
Make this sandwich your own! Adjust the measurements and bread used to your liking. You can even add red onion, pickles, etc. Anything you'd like.
