Yes, I need more practice.
And it could have helped had I known what time J actually wanted to step out of the house so that I could have managed my time better.So I ended up with ghastly but tasty treats for J’s packed lunch: Shiitake Mushroom Burgers!

Foodies Guide: Raw Vegan Alfredo Recipe
I’ve tried this recipe numerous times and I absolutely love it. I’m lactose intolerant so vegan recipes are usually my go to. You can pair this with regular pasta or even go completely raw with a raw pasta recipe.

- 1 teaspoon kelp flakes
- 1/2 - 1 teaspoon minced garlic

Homemade Seitan
I ran across a video of the Vegan Drag Queen making seitan. Who knows how to cook better than vegan drag queens? I tried to follow along and make it look like the way it turned out in the video but mine ended up looking more like ground beef. It made 3 times as much is in the above picture. I think I should have used a little more gluten mix or a little less water and soy sauce mix. Even though the texture isn’t what I was going for, it still tastes good so I’m going to give it another shot next week once I use all of this up.
- 3 1/2 Cups: Vital Wheat Gluten
- 2 Tbsp: Nutritional Yeast
- 12 Tbsp (total): spices (pick one of the following or choose your own spices)
Mexican: Dried Cilantro, Garlic Powder, Cumin, Chili Powder
Asian: Garlic Powder, Onion Powder, Ginger
Italian: Basil, Oregano, Sage, Rosemary- 2 Cups: Tamari Soy Sauce (or regular soy sauce)
- 14 1/2 Cups: Water
- 6 cubes: Vegetable Bouillon
- Add and mix wheat gluten and nutritional yeast with tablespoons of your chosen spices.
- Next, add 1/2 cup soy sauce and 2 1/2 cups water and mix until thick and tough.
- In a large pot, crumble bullion and add 12 cups of water, 1 1/2 cups soy sauce and the remaining 9 tbsp of spices and stir to make your broth.
- Cut your seitan mix into pieces and add it to the broth.
- Cover pot and bring to a boil then reduce heat and let simmer on low for 45 minutes.
- Remove pieces and strain and press to remove the excess juice in a bowl so you have broth to use for other recipes and seitan to use for whatever your heart desires.
