Tempeh bacon is a vegan bacon alternative made using tempeh, a dense loaf of pressed fermented soy beans, and is one of the least processed, most \u2018whole food\u2019 vegan bacon options around! Compared to this vegan tofu bacon<\/a>, it has a chewier texture and nuttier flavor. It is also less processed, probiotic-packed, and contains double the protein and lots of fiber.<\/p>\n

Even better, it\u2019s really easy to make. Just slice the tempeh, pan-fry it until golden, then finish cooking it with a simple sauce until crisp. In about 15 minutes, you\u2019ve got crunchy and delicious tempeh bacon that can be sliced, diced, or crumbled into breakfasts, BLTs, salads, wraps, and more.<\/p>\n
