11. I like the Gardein burgers...

… and reported that’s what I had last night.

I do prefer to make my own, though. If you search Pinterest, you can find lots of meatless recipes. Check out It Doesn’t Taste Like Chicken for some of the easiest and best recipes for beginners, or the Seitan Appreciation Society on FB.

Note gluten flour (the protein part of the wheat berry) is usually a major ingredient for seitan, and you usually steam your wheat meat and let it rest overnight to get the right texture.

This burger recipe is a good one, and I usually make enough to stockpile in the freezer for fast food meals: https://itdoesnttastelikechicken.com/the-best-vegan-seitan-burger/
