   in one bowl.

4. 4

5. 5

   Cut your tempeh block in half, hamburger style, then cut each half into three strips.

6. 6

   Mix the buffalo sauce into the buttermilk, then dip a tempeh finger into the milk mixture.

7. 7

   Next, roll the tempeh finger around in the Panko, making sure to coat each side well.

8. 8

   Lay the finger on the baking rack, then repeat with the remaining tempeh fingers.

   Bake for 20 minutes.

    During the last 2-3 minutes of baking, top some (or all) of your fingers with some cheese if that suits your fancy.

    I also like to mix 2-3 tablespoons of Franks into some plain, nonfat yogurt to make a yummy buffalo dipping sauce for my fingers.

    What can I say, I like a lot of buffalo flavor!
