By the way, if you give this recipe a try you can save a dirty dish by cooking the seitan and veggies in an oven-safe skillet. That way, when it's time to pop it all in the oven, you are ready to go and don't have to dirty another dish. I used a cast iron skillet and it worked perfect.
I paired it with a salad of mixed greens and garbanzo beans dressed in a simple lemon tahini sauce with roasted garlic. The bright lemon flavors seamed to balance out the heaviness of the pie and everything was delicious.
Did I mention I'm full? I couldn't finish my plate. That's so not like me.
I hope your weekend was wonderful! I'm starting a new theme week tomorrow. More on that ... you know ... tomorrow.

Besides om and nom and nom, how shall I register my desire to sample this tastiness?
Tonight, the father got exasperated with me when I refused to eat the deep-fried turkey and green beans cooked with bacon chunks. I ate some of the boiled potatoes and nuked some edamame when I realized my options were nil. Father said: "What the hell do you eat, anyway?"
This after I've made that man seitan-navy bean "sausages" that took an hour and a half to prepare. O.o
this looks so good! i love cooking things in my cast iron skillet... it's just so...easy. i've never cooked chocolate in a savory fashion before, but i have been meaning to try. yum!
That recipe looks and sounds fantastic!
Chocolate Seitan Pie!!!
The mind boggles. It looks super yum anyhow.
xx
KL: Consider your desire registered. Why are you spending so much time making such things for the father? Make that shit for yourself and people that can appreciate the time and effort you put into it. Like me. :) Speaking of, I'd love that recipe. Sounds interesting.
Allularpunk: I love cooking in cast iron, too. If you've been wanting to try chocolate in a savory dish, this is a great one to start with. Or you can always make a traditional mole sauce. Yum!
Tami: Thanks, it is! Give it a try!
Jeni Treehugger: It's totally yum. I hope you try it!
sorry i'm a bit behind on your blog, Marni! work has been bananas - and that's when i usually have some time to catch up on all the awesomeness. i'm glad you gave that recipe a go. i saw it too and thought "i wish my stomach could handle seitan!" - 'cause the combination really had me wanting to try it. i wonder if there's something else i can sub in. maybe tempeh? i dunno. i'll take a look at that one again.
hooray for a theme week! i'm gonna read up on it here in a few & i can't wait!
That sounds nuts - but ace!
