Nutty Ginger Seitan

Last week I made Ginger Seitan from the How it all Vegan! cookbook. It was good, but maybe a little too salty (thanks to my fiddling with the recipe, I'm sure!) It made enough for two adults and hubby wasn't home, so I had a bunch of left overs. Yesterday for lunch, I decided to see what I could do with it. I rinsed off the ginger sauce, added peanut butter and apple juice and heated it in the microwave. Oh my goodness! It was WONDERFUL! The ginger and peanut went so well together and it wasn't too salty this way. I ate it with carrot sticks because I'm cool like that (read lazy).
Anyway, I thought I'd share it with my 3 readers!

Happy Eating!

Seitan and Dumplings

It's our weekend without munchkin (my parents are watching her) so we fixed a "nice" dinner. A few weeks ago I made a big batch of seitan and froze it so today I pulled it out of the freezer and made dumplings with it. It's nothing difficult.

Ingredients:
Seitan w/cooking liquid - I used the recipe from Vegan with a Vengeance, but you use store bought seitan and add veggie broth or mushroom stock (if using veggie broth add some soy sauce)
Bisquick heart smart
3 TBSP soy milk

Method:
Simmer the seitan in liquid
Mix the Bisquick and soy milk
Drop dough into seitan and simmer until cooked
Serve with mashed potatoes (or whatever you want, we really like it with mashed potatoes)

Tonight we also had peanut butter apple pie. It was a new creation and still needs some work, but as I said when I tried it "oh my crap!" It was gooooood. I'll get a recipe up sometime. I need to get the proportions right before I post it. Look forward to amazingness.

Happy Eating!
