Instructions

Vegan Burger

  • Drain and rinse the Red Kidney Beans. Chop up all the vegetables.
  • Sautee the Onion in 1½ tsp of Olive Oil util slightly brown.
  • Sautee the Mushrooms in 1½ tsp of Olive Oil. After a few minutes, add in the Ground Cumin. Continue to sautee until slightly crispy.
  • Combine the Red Kidney Beans, Onion, Tomato Paste, Liquid Aminos, Garlic Powder, Black Pepper, and Flaxseed Meal in a food processor. Blend until smooth.
  • Add the Mushrooms into the food processor and blend to mix. You don't want the mushrooms blended smooth.
  • Move the mixture to a bowl and fold in the brown rice and walnuts (if using walnuts).
  • Form and ball and refrigerate for 15 minutes. This can be skipped if desired.
  • Form 6 patties on parchment paper.
  • Grill at 400°F for 7 minutes on each side. Or you can bake at 350°F for 20 minutes, flipping halfway through.

Vegan Egg

  • Blend the Silken Tofu, ½ tsp Black Salt, and Cornstarch until smooth to form the Vegan Egg White.
  • Separately, blend the remaining Vegan Egg ingredients to form the Vegan Yolk. If using Sweet Potato, cube and steam for 15 - 20 minutes.
  • In a pan on medium heat, lay down two tablespoons of Egg White mixture and form into an oval. Place a teaspoon of Egg Yolk mixture into the middle of the Egg White mixture.
  • Cover the Vegan Egg and fry for 2-4 minutes.

Vegan Gravy

  • Melt the butter over low heat in a pot. Sift in the Flour and make sure no clumps form.
  • Warm up this roux until fragrant.
  • Add in the vegetable broth and bring to a boil. Toss in the Poultry Seasoning.
  • Bring to a simmer. Serve right away or keep warm!
