Tempeh Sloppy Joes

This really satified my recent urge for a BBQ sandwich.

It makes four servings, and takes very little time and effort to prepare.

8 oz of tempeh, crumbled (I used Henry's Tempeh with hot peppers)
1 TB olive oil
1 medium onion, diced
1/2 cup diced green or red pepper (or celery)
1 cup barbeque sauce
4 toasted burger buns or 8 slices of toasted bread

Marinate tempeh in the barbeque sauce for about 20 minutes (while you're preparing and sauting the veggies as below).

Heat olive oil in a pan; add the veggies and saute, stirring until veggies are soft (or to your own taste). Add the marinated tempeh and sauce and heat through.

Serve on toasted buns or bread.
