Step 1

TEMPEH BACON: For homemade tempeh bacon, prepare according to this recipe. If using store-bought, cook according to package instructions. Once cooked and slightly cooled, crumble the strips into ~1/4 inch pieces.

Step 2

RANCH: Meanwhile, if making homemade vegan ranch, prepare it at this time.

Step 3

CROUTONS (optional): If adding homemade croutons, prepare them at this time.

Step 4

To a large mixing bowl, add chopped romaine lettuce, quartered cherry tomatoes, chopped cucumber, diced avocado, and thinly sliced red onion. Pour the vegan ranch dressing (starting with the lesser amount) on top of the salad and toss to combine. Add more dressing if desired.

Step 5

Divide the salad between serving bowls and top with tempeh bacon crumbles and croutons (optional). Enjoy!

Step 6

Salad without avocado or dressing will keep for up to 2-3 days. Dressing and tempeh bacon will keep stored separately for up to 4-5 days. Not freezer friendly.
