Greek Tempeh Pitas

This was actually pretty good. Now that I've fixed it once I'll know a little better on how to fix it next time. I would definitely allow time to let both the tempeh and the vegetable mixture marinate. I would also add some fresh chopped cilantro as a garnish to top the dish off after being completed. Unlike what the recipe says in regards to slicing the tempeh, I crumbled mine up, for me this is easier to mix in the other ingredients (they all mesh better that way) and also easier to cook/fry and spoon/scoop out of the pan and into or onto a pita. I didn't know what tzatziki was and my local organic grocery store didn't either, so I picked up some Cucumber & Shallot vinaigrette and that seemed to work just fine. What was a really special treat was gently warming both the tempeh mixture and the vegetable mixture (separately or together) a day later as leftovers over a warm pita and it was 10 times more delicious than the day of cooking, letting the flavors gel and marinate really make a difference with this recipe. Also, this is a great recipe to make ahead of time and just scoop/spoon as you need for a day or two (or three) for a quick and delicious meal for lunch or on the run! (and healthy I might add)

This was my first attempt at cooking with tempeh and I liked the idea of the gyros. I made as stated but instead of the balsamic and oil used home made Greek salad dressing. I toasted my pitas in the toaster oven and next time will use the pan method as I thought they were too crunchy. These were excellent and filling, I'll make them again for sure. Thanks for posting, erinn in tbay!

My first-ever attempt to prepare tempeh and it was just great. The marinating is the key, and broiling until crisp. I didn't have plain yogurt and I didn't want onion, so mine was more like a TLT in a pita.

This is one of the best ways I've had tempeh. It really took advantage of its flavor and texture. Great recipe!

i actually thought i had commented on this before, but i guess not. my wife and I love this dish. it is so easy to make and so tasty. i had a friend who hates vegetarian dishes over for dinner and he had three of them. so glad i made a double batch. so much for leftovers. i do agree with the others that it would have been nice to have amounts of olive oil and soy, but i just eyeball it and i have also found that i like it best when i allow it to marinate over night when i have time.
