Vegeaster Dinner!!

Seitan, sweet potatoes, sweet jesus.

Seitan ala Orange

12-16 oz box seitan

vegtable broth

1/4 cup orange marmalade

1tbsp blue bonnet light (or equivalent)

2 tablespoons ketchup

1 tsp liquid smoke

baby carrots

cornstarch to thicken

Follow the directions on the box to make the seitan, but use vegtable broth instead of plain water for the liquid. Place seitan in pan and cover with vegtable broth. Add ketchup, liquid smoke and baby carrots. Bring to a boil, and then simmer for 45 min-60 min. remove seitan from broth, and slice. Set aside. Keeping heat low, add the marmalade and margarine to the broth, whisk until marmalade and margarine have melted. On low heat slowly sprinkle cornstarch into the mixture. Whisk so it doesn't clump up into little balls. Not that that happened to me or anything. Nope. Those little white things on the seitan?? Oh they're nothing. No, I'm a total chef. I would never serve food with clumps of cornstarch. Seriously. Anyways, once the sauce is as thick as you wish it to be, spoon the sauce and carrots over the lonely seitan.

Sweet Tater Fries

Sweet potatoes

olive oil spray

seasoning salt (any brand should do, as long as it's not too spicey!)

Large pan

Preheat oven to 425. Cut sweet potatoes into fry-like strips. Spray pan with olive oil. Place sweet potatoes in a single layer onto the pan. Spray with more olive oil. Sprinkle seasoning salt to taste. Place potatoes in oven. Cook until crunchy looking. In my oven it takes about 35 minutes, but I have a very ghetto oven. Seriously. I live in a trailer park, and the oven came with the trailer. There have probably been dead babies and cats in my oven. Now enjoy those sweet potato fries.
