  • Broccoli Rabe and Seitan Sausage Totrta, Bluefoot Mushrooms, Salad with Poppy Seed Dressing

    Dinner 2/28

    Broccoli Rabe and Seitan Sausage Totrta

    Bluefoot Mushrooms

    Salad with Poppy Seed Dressing

    The torta is adapted from a recipe in Gourmet (01/07) — it’s made in a springform pan by layering crepes, sauteed broccoli rabe, bechamel sauce (roux + soy milk and a pinch of nutmeg), seitan sausages (the last of the chaurice-styled ones we made a while back), Teese, salt and pepper. The crepes are from “Vegan with a Vengeance.”

    Here you can see the layers pretty well…

    Served along with some sauteed Bluefoot Mushrooms we picked up at WF earlier in the week.
