Seitan Recipes

[Guest guest]

I have never received so much junk e-mail, mostly get-rich-quick type schemes as

I have since became . I used to get one once in a while, but

now I get at least a few of them everyday! I'll have to see if changing my

preferences helps.

 

Christine, here are a couple of seitan recipes for you. Even my persnickity

carnivore husband like the Seitan with Lemon and Garlic. I haven't tried the

Curried Seitan because we normally don't care for spicy things, but maybe I will

sometime soon. I have never tried to send more than one recipe at a time

before, so I hope this works. (I still have Karen's note tellling me how to do

this, which I have referred to - but that doesn't necessarily mean I'll be

successful ;-) If it doesn't work, I'll send them one at a time.
