Jerk Seitan with Garlic Mashed Potatoes and Broccoli

Here's another one from Vegan with a Vengeance. So far this book has not disappointed us once. The jerk seitan we made tonight is very similar to this recipe for jerk tofu, but with seitan instead of tofu. (If you're not sure what seitan is, try looking it up on Wikipedia.) We had the seitan with garlic mashed potatoes which I made by peeling, quartering and boiling 4 yukon gold potatoes, then mashing them with about 1/2 a head of roasted garlic, a little margarine, about 1/4 cup of Silk creamer, and salt & pepper. We rounded out the meal with steamed broccoli.

I've been loving reading this blog! After seeing your picture of the jerk seitan, we decided to have the exact same meal (except with kale instead of broccoli) and it was delicious! I'm also hoping to make the gnocci later this week too. Thanks for the new menu ideas!

You're welcome... And thank you for the kind words. We'll definitely be making this one again.
