Remove the skillet from the heat, set aside, and allow the mixture to cool completely.

In a large bowl, place the broccoli, tomatoes, and the cooled tempeh mixture, and toss lightly to combine. In a small bowl, place the Almond Mayonnaise, sugar, and vinegar, and stir well to combine. Add the mayonnaise mixture, along with the remaining ingredients, and toss gently to combine. Cover and chill for 30 minutes or more to allow the flavors to blend before serving.
