not the healthiest recipe in the world, but its soooo good. old family recipe, veganized just for you :)
ingredients:
1 loaf of bread (any vegan bread, white is best for this recipe)
1 and 1/2 packages of gimme lean sausage
1 large onion, chopped and sauteed in 1/2 cup of earth balance (its 1/4 of the tub, or 1 stick depending on what you buy)
1 or 2 small cans of mushrooms (optional, if used sautee with onions)
1 tablespoon of sage
2 teaspoons of poultry spice
unsweetened soy milk
directions:
break slices of bread (the whole loaf) up into bite sized pieces and place in a large bowl
cook gimme lean sausage throughly and drain any grease
add sausage to bread and mix well
add sauteed onions and mushrooms (if desired) and mix well
add spices, mix well
slowly add soy milk and mix with hands until mixture becomes sloppy - the consistency should be a little bit mushier than bread dough
add a touch more of the spices if desired (occasionally i'll add a dash of parsley and tarragon)
*if you can, prepare all of this the night before and let it sit in the fridge overnight, covered with foil or plastic wrap - it makes it more flavorful. if not, its still delicious the same day :)
when ready to cook, transfer ingredients to an oven safe dish, and bake covered, at 350 degrees for no more than an hour. everything is kind of already cooked, it really just needs to warm up and kind of meld together, if its cooked too long, it'll dry out, so do at least a half hour, no more than an hour, depending on the consistency you want it to be. :)
happy thanksgiving! enjoy!
