Honey Mustard Seitan

This recipe is incredibly simple and easy to prepare. It's also impossible to ruin, making it one of my favorite recipes of all time. It was developed originally to utilize the last of a container of deli mustard that had been in my fridge for a ridiculous amount of time. Although I'm not sure mustard has an expiration date, it was starting to turn more brown than is normal.

6 medium-sized seitan steaks (I like bloodroot's recipe for home made seitan)
1/2 cup agave nectar
1/2 cup prepared Deli mustard
1/2 cup regular or light soymilk
 1 tbls. dried dill

Preheat oven to 350. While you're waiting for the oven to preheat you can mix all liquid ingredients together with the dried dill in a medium sized mixing bowl. Dip each piece of your seitan into the mixture, making sure to coat all sides, and arrange them in a 9 x 13 baking dish. Pour any remaining mixture over the arranged seitan steaks and cover the pan with aluminum foil before baking for thirty minutes at 350.
I like to serve this over brown rice, or stuffed inside whole wheat tortillas with shredded lettuce and french fried onions.

Seitan and Romanesco casserole

developed to utilize leftover tomato sauce and french bread from a previous nights spaghetti
totally effing delicious.

1 head Romanesco broccoli
1 10 oz. package traditional seitan
1 12 oz package whole wheat spiral pasta
3 tbls. breadcrumbs
4 slices tofutti mozzarella
1-2 cups tomato sauce (any pasta or pizza sauce works well for this)
crusty bread (last nights half loaf of garlic bread is perfect, as well as the last few pieces of a any loaf that needs to get used up.)
2 cups Nutritional Yeast cheese sauce (recipe located on most packages)
2 tbls italian seasoning
1 tbls braggs liquid aminos
3 cloves crushed garlic 
1 tbls olive oil


Boil pasta to al dente, drain and return to pan.

Wash romanesco florets and saute together with garlic and olive oil over med-high heat until slightly browned on edges, adding water to pan as needed. (NOTE: Romanesco is high in vitamin C which is water soluble, so use as little as necessary to avoid nutritional degradation.)
roughly chop Seitan and add to pan, continue to saute until Seitan is lightly browned and then add Braggs along with the italian seasoning. Toss together until liquid disappears.

Add stirfry to pasta pan with tomato sauce and nutritional yeast cheese sauce. Mix well to combine and transfer to an oiled 8" by 8" casserole dish.

top with slices of tofutti mozzarella and sprinkle with breadcrumbs

cook at 350 for 30 minutes then turn on broiler and broil under supervision until breadcrumbs are dark and crisp.
