These plant-based sausages taste great, contain no added
fat except the vegetable oil they're fried in, and are
easy to make. These ingredients yield fairly mild
sausages; after you've tried them, adjust the seasonings
to please your palate.
Combine all ingredients in a mixing bowl, mix thoroughly,
and shape into 1" to 2" sausages. Saute in a small amount
of vegetable oil until crisp, or place in a baking pan
and broil, turning when edges are slightly crisp.
Serve with Mushroom-Red Pepper Sauce.
MUSHROOM-RED PEPPER SAUCE: Cook red pepper in vegetable
broth for 5 to 7 minutes until tender. Add mushrooms,
onion, salt, celery seed, oregano, and black pepper.
Cook 5 mins longer or until onion is transparent.
Quickly whisk in enough flour to just thicken the sauce,
about 2 tablespoons at a time. Immediately remove from
burner.
Do not overcook, or flour will cake. If needed, add more
vegetable broth or water.
Serve over sausages, whole grains, or vegetables.
