Our fourth creative and delicious oat recipe is sausage! Yep! Vegan sausage is delicious, cholesterol free and high in fiber. It's really easy to make and easy to tweak the seasonings to your liking.
Preheat oven to 350.
Place all the following ingredients into a pot:
3 cups water
1/4 cup Tamari
2 Tablespoons granulated onion
1/2 Tablespoon granulated garlic
1/2 - 1 Tablespoon of crushed red pepper (if you don't like spicy you should leave this out or greatly reduce the amount)
1 teaspoon Bakon hickory seasoning or a drop or two of liquid smoke
1 Tablespoon EVOO
1/4 cup pure maple syrup
1 teaspoon sage
1 teaspoon salt
(You can change the amounts, eliminate or add other seasonings to your liking.)
Bring to a boil then add:
2 1/2 - 3 cups quick oats
Stir, return to boil then turn off heat and let set until the oats have absorbed all the liquid.
Use a small scoop to spoon out equal amounts on to parchment or spayed cookie sheet. You could also try to shape them into sausage shapes if it has cooled enough to handle.
Mash gently with a fork.
Bake for about 15 minutes on each side.
While they're in the oven I whip up some of Myrna's Healthy Ketchup. The Ketchup you buy in the store has more sugar ounce for ounce than ice cream not to mention all the other harmful things it contains. But, Myrna's ketchup is not only better tasting than the "leading brand" it is totally good for you!
Put in the blender:
1 (28 oz.) can tomato sauce
1 (6 oz.) can tomato paste
1 1/2 -2 teaspoons salt (to taste)
1/4 cup honey or 1/3 cup Florida Crystals (dried cane sugar)
2 Tablespoons lemon juice
Just blend to mix and poor into a squeeze bottle. This recipe usually fills two of my large squeeze bottles so I use one and freeze the other for later use. Since this is a fresh product and not full of preservatives it will last in you refrigerator for only a couple of weeks. (It is usually eaten long before that.)
Serve your oat sausage as a side dish to the rest of your breakfast or enjoy it alone.
Healthy eating!
