Combine boiling water and sun-fried tomatoes and let stand at least 20 minutes to rehydrate tomatoes. Drain well, then coarsely chop.
Slice tempeh into long slices, 6 slices per package.
Heat a large nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray over medium-high heat. Add onion and sautee for 5 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove from heat and add balsamic vinegar.
Whisk together the lemon juice, red wine vinegar, honey, rosemary, Dijon mustard, garlic and salt, and set aside.
Heat a pan coated with non-stick spray and cook tempeh for 5-6 minutes, browning lightly on both sides. Add lemon juice mixture, and heat for 2-3 more minutes or until sauce thickens.
Warm tortillas then spread a bit of tapenade over each tortilla. Top with a few slices of tempeh, sun-dried tomatoes, balsamic onions and watercress; wrap and enjoy your vegetarian wrap sandwiches!
