Slice the tempeh into thin strips and marinate it in a mixture of soy sauce, maple syrup, and liquid smoke for at least 10 minutes.
While the tempeh is marinating, prepare the aioli by mixing vegan mayonnaise, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, salt, and freshly ground black pepper in a small bowl. Set aside.
Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the marinated tempeh strips and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, until they are brown and crispy. Remove from heat and set aside as the tempeh bacon.
Toast the slices of whole grain bread until golden brown.
Slice the avocado thinly. Cut the tomato into thin slices, and slice the cucumber into thin rounds.
To assemble the sandwich, spread a layer of vegan aioli on one side of each slice of toasted bread.
On the first slice of bread, place some of the avocado slices, a layer of tempeh bacon, and a lettuce leaf.
Top with the second slice of bread, aioli side down, then add tomato slices, cucumber slices, and another lettuce leaf.
Finish with the third slice of bread, aioli side down, and gently press the sandwich down.
Slice the sandwich diagonally and secure with toothpicks if desired. Repeat the layers for the second sandwich.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Vegan Classic Clubhouse Sandwich!
