12 cup water, tomato sauce, maple syrup, ketchup, and oil in a separate small bowl Combine thoroughly.
Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the tomato sauce. Begin to stir. This is put together quickly. Squeeze in one hand and pass it through your fingers about ten times. Begin kneading in the bowl. Although it is a wet mixture, it will begin to become elastic. Knead for 3 minutes to make a softer and more tender breakfast link. The longer you knead it, the softer it becomes. I keep everything in the bowl for kneading. It's a lot easier to clean up.
Pinch off small chunks and quickly roll between the palms of your hands, back and forth. This will result in thirty-two small links. You won't be able to make pretty links, but they'll work fine in any recipe. You could also make fifteen larger links. The larger size would increase the protein content of each link to 15 grams.
Place the slow cooker links in the liquid. Cook on low for 6 hours, covered. As they cook, they will expand in size.
Allow to cool after removing from the slow cooker. Refrigerate for up to 5 days before using. They freeze extremely well, both with and without their liquid.

In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat the oil. Using your hands, crumble the tofu into the skillet. Stir and cook for 3 minutes, breaking up any remaining large pieces. Combine the nutritional yeast, black salt, 1/2 tsp pepper, turmeric, and paprika in a mixing bowl. To combine, stir everything together. Stir in the seitan, beans, broccoli, salt, and 1/4 tsp pepper. To combine, stir everything together. Set aside after removing from the heat.
WHITE CHEESE SAUCE: In a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, melt the butter. Cook for 1 minute after adding the flour. Bring the milk to a low boil, then remove from the heat. Stir occasionally to keep lumps from forming in the sauce. Reduce the heat to medium and stir in the nutritional yeast and salt. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, to allow the sauce to thicken slightly. Set aside after removing from the heat.
ASSEMBLY: Preheat the oven to 170°C/350°F. In a 9-inch square or 8-by- 10-inch casserole dish, add 3 tbsp of the enchilada sauce. Distribute evenly across the bottom. In the skillet, divide the filling into six portions. You can eyeball it or make creases in the filling in the shape of a pie.
Spread enchilada sauce on a tortilla and place it on a plate. Fill each cup with one-sixth of the tofu filling. Roll up the dough and place it in the casserole dish. Continue filling and rolling the tortillas until all six are finished. Top the rolled tortillas with the remaining enchilada sauce. If the white cheese sauce has thickened, reheat it so that it can be spooned over the top of the enchilada sauce. Bake for 30 minutes, covered. Uncover and serve garnished with olives, green onions, and cilantro.

Melt the butter in the pan over medium-high heat. Brown the links on all sides in the pan for about 5 minutes total. If you made larger links, cut them lengthwise through the center and fry them that way. The links are already cooked all the way through and can be eaten cold, but this adds a nice finishing touch to the sandwich.
Toast the English muffins and spread with your favourite condiments, such as dairy-free chipotle mayo, while the links brown. Place the sautéed mushrooms, links, and avocado on top. Serve with an English muffin slice on top.

In a small skillet over medium heat, heat the olive oil. Cook for 3 to 5 minutes, or until the onion is translucent. Add the mayonnaise, nutritional yeast, 1 tbsp (15 ml) vinegar, and the remaining 2 tsp maple syrup and mustard to a small blender. Blend until smooth. Taste and adjust with more vinegar if necessary. Restart the process. Return the sauce to the small skillet and keep it warm with the residual heat. If not, gently heat over low heat. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
In a large skillet, heat a thin layer of oil over medium-high heat. Place the tempeh in the skillet and cook it carefully. It might splatter. Cook for 3–5 minutes, or until browned. Cook for 3 to 5 minutes on the other side, or until browned.
On each plate, place an English muffin, 12 cup (10 g) baby arugula, 1 tempeh patty, and 2 slices tomato. Season the tomatoes with salt and pepper to taste. Serve with the sauce drizzled on top.

Mix in the chia seeds and vanilla extract. Refrigerate for at least 3 hours or overnight. Before serving, give it a good stir.
Fill the bottom of the serving dish with a few fresh berries. (Alternatively, stir the berries directly into the mixture, reserving a few for garnish.)
Sprinkle with the remaining berries and divide the chia preparation on top.
Leftovers can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
As needed, adjust the amount of extra sugar. You could also substitute more maple syrup for (any) granulated sugar.
Regular chia seeds can be used, but white chia seeds produce a more visually appealing result.

In the same large pot that you used to cook the farro, combine the chopped apples, Sucanat or brown sugar, and cinnamon. Increase the heat to medium-high and stir to combine the ingredients. When the apples begin to release moisture, reduce the heat to medium and continue to cook until the apples are tender, about 10 to 15 minutes, stirring frequently. Cooking time will vary depending on the size of the apple bits and the type of apple used. Tender bits, not applesauce, are what you're after.
Remove the pot from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Add the cooked grain to the apples and serve immediately, with as much warm milk as desired on top of each serving. If desired, top each serving with a handful of nuts, extra cinnamon, and maple syrup.
To make this dish, you'll need 3 generous cups (weight will vary for other grains) of cooked grain: To achieve a nice texture and nutty flavour, we prefer al dente grain. Cook it to your liking if you prefer a more tender grain.
