Instructions: These plant-based sausages taste great, contain no added fat except the vegetable oil theyre fried in, and are easy to make. These ingredients yield fairly mild sausages; after youve tried them, adjust the seasonings to please your palate.

DIRECTIONS: = Combine all ingredients in a mixing bowl, mix thoroughly, and shape into 1- to 2-inch sausages. Saute in a small amount of vegetable oil until crisp, or place in a baking pan and broil, turning when edges are slightly crisp. Serve with Mushroom-Red Pepper Sauce

(below).

MUSHROOM-RED PEPPER SAUCE: Cook red pepper in vegetable broth for 5 to 7 minutes until tender. Add mushrooms, onion, salt, celery seed, oregano, and black pepper. Cook 5 minutes longer or until onion is transparent.

Quickly whisk in enough flour to just thicken the sauce, about 2 tablespoons at a time. Immediately remove from burner. Do not overcook, or flour will cake. If needed, add more vegetable broth or water. Serve over sausages, whole grains, or vegetables.
