Method

Vegan Steak Preparation

1

Prepare the Flax Egg

In a small bowl, mix the ground flaxseed with water and let it sit for about 5 minutes to thicken.

2

Cook the Vegetables

In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Sauté the onion, garlic, and grated carrot until softened, about 5-7 minutes. Add the chopped mushrooms and cook until moisture is released.

3

Combine Ingredients

In a large bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, sautéed vegetables, flax egg, soy sauce, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix well until fully combined.

4

Shape the Steaks

Form the mixture into patties that resemble steaks. You can adjust the size based on your preference.

5

Cook the Steaks

Grill the portobello mushrooms for about 3-4 minutes on each side, then place the formed patties on the grill for about 5 minutes per side until firm.

Red Wine and Beet Jus Preparation

6

Combine Ingredients

In a small saucepan, combine red wine, vegetable broth, pureed beet, balsamic vinegar, salt, and pepper.

7

Simmer

Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and let it simmer for about 15 minutes, or until slightly thickened.

Broiled Tomato Provençale Preparation

8

Prepare the Tomato Filling

In a bowl, mix breadcrumbs, parsley, minced garlic, olive oil, salt, and pepper.

9

Broil the Tomatoes

Stuff the halved tomatoes with the breadcrumb mixture and place them under the broiler for about 5-7 minutes until golden brown.

Heirloom Carrots Preparation

10

Roast the Carrots

Toss the heirloom carrots with olive oil, salt, and thyme (if using). Roast in the oven at 400°F (200°C) for about 20-25 minutes until tender.
