Make the tempeh: Add the tempeh and enough water to cover it by 2-inches to a medium stovetop pot. Bring to a boil and boil for 10 minutes. Drain and set aside.
Meanwhile, make the Cajun seasoning: Add the paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, optional cayenne pepper and salt to a shallow bowl. Whisk to combine.
Season and cook the tempeh: Brush the tempeh with optional olive oil then press both sides of the tempeh seasoning into the cajun seasoning. If you’re not using oil, you may need a little water to make the seasoning stick.
Cook the tempeh in a stovetop pan over medium heat for 2–3 minutes on each side or until slightly golden.
Assemble your sandwiches: Spread 2 tablespoons of the Spicy Mustard Dipping Sauce onto one slice of toasted bread. Add 2–3 forkfuls of Pickled Red Onions. Add several sprigs of watercress and the sliced avocado. Place the blackened tempeh over top. Add the second slice of toasted bread.
Cut your watercress tempeh sandwich in half, if desired, and enjoy!
