Instructions

Bake the BBQ tempeh.

Preheat the oven to 350° F (177℃), and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Slice the tempeh into thin strips, if you haven't already.
Mix all the BBQ tempeh ingredients except tempeh in a shallow bowl. Add tempeh strips and mix and flip to coat. Let them sit for 15 minutes to an hour refrigerated. Longer the better. Place the tempeh strips 1/2" away from each other on the baking sheet. Brush any leftover sauce on the strips. Bake for 18 to 22 minutes, or until the center strips are dry to the touch. Cool for a few minutes before removing from the sheet.

Meanwhile, make the slaw.

In a bowl mix the tahini, water, mustard, maple, and lemon juice. Taste and adjust sweet and tang. Add cabbage, carrots and apples and mix well. Add salt and black pepper to taste. Add sesame seeds for crunch (optional).
Warm the flatbread, add a good helping of the slaw and warm tempeh strips. Garnish with cilantro, fruits and/or avocado, and serve.

Notes

BBQ tempeh wraps are naturally nut-free. They are gluten-free, if you use gluten-free flatbread.
