After a weekend of wedding festivities, Sunday night was all about catching up on work and playing the “What’s left in the fridge?” game. Dinner actually came together pretty well: homemade seitan with roasted sweet potato, roasted onion, and corn cut off the cob and tossed with a little salt, pepper and sour cream. Chris also made a vegan gravy to go with the seitan.

We were trying to come up with a better name for it than just “seitan,” but somehow Vegetarian Turkey Steak or Log-Roasted Wheat Gluten Fillet just sound too weird.

Anyway…here’s the gravy recipe.
