Pour the tomatoes into a large bowl and mash them a bit with a fork. Stir in the coconut aminos, then add the crumbled tempeh and toss to coat. Let the mixture sit for 5-10 minutes to marinate while you gather the remaining ingredients.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and spices; cook until fragrant, about 20 seconds. Pour in the tomato and tempeh mixture. Cook, stirring often, for about 5 minutes, or until the tempeh is warmed through. Season to taste with salt and pepper and remove from heat.
Divide the tempeh mixture into the taco shells and top as desired.
