  • 1 pack tempeh

  • 1 can jackfruit

  • 1 medium sized onion

  • 3 cloves garlic

  • 1 tbsp. olive oil

  • 1 tsp. paprika

  • 1 tsp. garlic powder

  • 1/2 tsp. salt

  • 1/2 tsp. pepper

  • 1/2 tsp. chili powder

  • 1/2 tsp. cumin

  • 2 cups vegetable broth

  • 3/4 cup barbecue sauce (I used @annieshomegrown brand)

  • Drizzle of maple syrup

Slaw Ingredients

  • Broccoli slaw mix

  • 1/2 cup @followyourheart vegenaise

  • 3 tbsp. red wine vinegar

  • 1/2 tsp. sugar

  • 3 tbsp. lemon juice

  • 1/4 tsp. salt

  • 1/4 tsp. pepper

Other Ingredients

  • Small taco tortillas - whole wheat, flour, corn - pick your favorite!

Instructions

  1. Crumble jackfruit into a colander and rinse/drain. Crumble tempeh in a bowl. Set to the side.

  2. Chop up onion and garlic - sauté for 3 minutes in olive oil THEN add jackfruit and tempeh.

  3. Let simmer for a few minutes then season with paprika, garlic powder, salt, pepper, chili powder, and cumin. Mix and simmer until color develops.

  4. Add 1.5 cups vegetable broth, 3/4 cup barbecue sauce, and a drizzle of maple syrup. Simmer on medium-high heat for 20 minutes.

  5. While jackfruit/tempeh mix is simmering, prepare slaw by combing all ingredients in a bowl EXCEPT for the broccoli slaw itself. Add broccoli slaw to a large tupperware bowl and drizzle the dressing mix on top. I like to top off my tupperware and shake to combine!

  6. In a small skillet over medium heat, warm up the tortillas by adding them one at a time, flipping every 2 minutes so they don’t burn.

  7. Once the jackfruit/tempeh mixture has absorbed the liquid - add them to your tortillas, top them off with slaw mixture, and enjoy!
