Sausage Recipes for the New Vegan

Image
  Giving up sausage can feel like a tough ask when you first go vegan. The savoury, spiced, satisfying chew of a sausage is something many of us grew up with and crave. The good news? Vegan sausages are surprisingly easy to make at home, and they can be just as hearty and flavourful as the real thing—without the meat. These three easy vegan sausage recipes each use a different plant-based protein: lentils, tofu, and vital wheat gluten. They're perfect for new vegans looking to recreate old favourites without sacrificing taste or texture. 1.

ANOTHER Melty Cheez Recipe (Vegan, Egg-free, Dairy-free, Gluten-Free)

Image
There are already several recipes for Vegan Cheez recipes on this site, each a little different from the other, so why another one?  Well, I was thinking about my fave store-bought vegan cheese (Daiya brand) and recall that its main ingredient is tapioca starch.  I thought I could make a pretty nice melty cheese with that in mind, and I did!  Here is a picture of the ingredients: 1. In a pot on medium heat, measure in the following and whisk together for about 30 seconds or so: 4 T. Coconut Oil 5 T. Tapioca Flour/Starch 2.

Recipe for GOLDEN SAUCE (Gluten-free, dairy-free)

I guess you could call this SCREAMINGLY GOLDEN SAUCE (I added "a bit" of Turmeric) Cook together in a small pan: *1 small Potato *1/2 small Carrot *1 1/3 C. Water When done, blend (including cooking water) with: *2 T. Cashews *3/4 tsp. Salt *2 T. fresh Lemon Juice *Dash of Celery Salt **1 T. Nutritional Yeast (add in OR substitute for the Cashews) Serve over broccoli, cauliflower, etc. Nice replacement for cheese sauces. (Above Golden Sauce recipe contributed by Wyona Hertwig with ** Note: My sauce didn't turn out as golden as I thought it should be so I added a little of the herb Turmeric -- we try to eat it some way everyday-- and I didn't have cashews, so used an equal amount of raw sunflower seeds instead-- I call this "Guiltless Cheese Sauce - Cynthia ) Other Cheesy Sauce or Spread Recipes in this Blog include: Alpine Cheese Spread American Cheese Melty Cheese Another Melty Cheez
