Ingredients
- 1 8-ounce block tempeh
- 1/4 cup BBQ sauce
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1/4 cup cashews
- 2 tablespoons creamy Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon white miso paste
- 1 tablespoon garlic minced
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 4 cups curly kale stems removed and leaves chopped
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 1 cup Brussels sprouts trimmed and thinly sliced
- 1 tablespoon capers
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Slice the tempeh into thin strips and then into chunks. Place the tempeh in a medium bowl and toss with BBQ sauce to coat.
- Spread the BBQ-coated tempeh in an even layer on a baking sheet. Bake 20-25 minutes, until browned and slightly crispy, turning halfway through.
- In a high-speed blender or mini food processor, combine 1/4 cup water, lemon juice, cashews, Dijon mustard, white miso paste, garlic, sea salt, and black pepper. Blend until smooth and adjust seasoning to taste.
- In a large bowl, add the chopped kale and drizzle with olive oil. Massage the kale leaves until evenly coated.
- Add the sliced Brussels sprouts and capers to the kale. Toss with the desired amount of dressing.
- Divide the salad evenly between large dinner bowls and top with the BBQ tempeh. Serve immediately.
