INSTRUCTIONS

1
Prep the produce

Rinse and dry the celery (including the leaves), apple, and scallion. Set aside. Preheat your oven to 375°F.

2
Marinate the tempeh

Place a small saucepan over medium heat and add the Frank’s Red Hot and vegan butter. Whisk until butter is melted, add a pinch of salt, and remove the buffalo sauce from heat. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Slice tempeh lengthwise into thin strips (¼ inch thick) and lay on parchment. Pour the sauce over the tempeh, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and let marinate for 10 minutes.

3
Make the ranch crema

In a small bowl, whisk together the vegan mayonnaise, garlic powder, onion powder, dried parsley, soy milk, and ½ tsp of the apple cider vinegar. Whisk, season with salt and pepper and set crema aside in refrigerator.

4
Bake the buffalo tempeh

Place the marinated buffalo tempeh in the oven and bake until lightly browned and a little crispy, about 20 minutes. Wrap the corn tortillas in foil and set aside.

5
Make the slaw

Pick off the celery leaves and place in a small bowl. Thinly slice the celery stalk and scallion and add to the small bowl. Cut half of the apple into thin ¼-inch sticks — you can save the other half for snacking! Add the sliced apple to the bowl with 1 tbsp olive oil and the remaining 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar. Season slaw with salt and pepper and toss well.

6
Build the tacos

Place corn tortillas in the oven for 5 minutes to warm. Lay 3 warm tortillas on each plate and top with the buffalo tempeh and celery apple slaw. Drizzle with ranch crema and serve with extra sauce on the side for dipping!
