Number Of Ingredients 17

Ingredients

1 cup vegetable broth
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 teaspoons dried oregano
2 teaspoons ground thyme
1 ½ teaspoons minced garlic
1 (8 ounce) package tempeh
4 (6 inch) whole-wheat pitas
1 dash pink Himalayan salt
1 dash ground black pepper
2 small cucumbers, peeled and grated
1 (12.3 ounce) package silken tofu
1 tablespoon (packed) fresh dill
1 teaspoon minced fresh garlic
salt and ground black pepper to taste
2 tomatoes, sliced
½ red onion, thinly sliced

Steps:

Combine vegetable broth, soy sauce, lemon juice, oregano, thyme, 1 1/2 teaspoons garlic, Himalayan salt, and dash of pepper in a large bowl.
Bring a saucepan of water to a boil. Cut tempeh in half and add to the boiling water. Boil for 10 minutes to remove any bitter taste. Transfer tempeh to a cutting board and allow to cool slightly.
Cut tempeh into 1/4-inch slices and place them in the vegetable broth marinade. Cover with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator 8 hours to overnight, stirring occasionally to be sure tempeh is covered with marinade.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Transfer marinated tempeh slices to the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven, turning halfway through, until golden brown and beginning to crisp at the edges, 30 to 35 minutes.
Place pitas in the hot oven until warmed through, 3 to 5 minutes.
Squeeze excess water from cucumbers using a paper towel. Place tofu, cucumbers, dill, 1 teaspoon garlic, salt, and pepper in a food processor. Blend until tzatziki is well mixed. Adjust seasonings if desired.
Assemble a gyro by placing 1/4 of tempeh slices, tomatoes, and red onions on top of a pita. Cover with tzatziki. Repeat with remaining tempeh, tomatoes, onion, and pita.

Time 5h30m

Yield 4-6 gyros, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 28

Ingredients

4 ounces tempeh
2 chopped garlic cloves
1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
1/2 tablespoon garlic
1 teaspoon thyme
4 tablespoons olive oil
1/8 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon rice vinegar or 1 teaspoon other vinegar
1/2 cup peeled grated cucumber
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 chopped garlic clove
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon dill weed
1/2 teaspoon mustard powder
1 cup plain Greek yogurt
1/2 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon parsley
2 teaspoons onion powder
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon rice vinegar or 1 teaspoon other vinegar
1 teaspoon oregano
4 -6 Greek pita breads
olive oil (for cooking)
lettuce
tomatoes

Steps:

To make gyro "meat" cut tempeh into thin strips 1/2 - 1.5 cm in thickness works well.
Next make tempeh marinade with all ingredients listed under "Gyro Tempeh".
Pour the marinade over the tempeh, make sure all surfaces are covered and place in fridge to marinate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.
Next, make Tzatziki- combine all ingredients listed under Tzatziki. Stir well and also place in fridge to sit for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.
When you are ready to eat, set the Tzatziki out to warm slightly while you cook the tempeh.
Heat a large skillet with 3-4 tbsp olive oil and heat over medium, once heated place tempeh strips in and let them cook until each side is golden brown.
Remove tempeh from pan, and one at a time heat the pitas over medium heat until warmed on each side.
Then layer your gyro (pita, tzatziki and tempeh) as you choose with lettuce, and/or tomato if you like.
