    METHOD

    X
    Preheat the oven to 190°C/375°F. Lightly grease a 9 x 13-inch pan.

    In a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat, heat the oil. Cook until the mushrooms are almost soft. Continue to cook until the seitan is lightly browned. Combine basil, red pepper, salt, and pepper in a mixing bowl. Continue to cook for 1 minute more. Remove from the heat and place the mixture in a food processor. Pulse about 15 times, or until the mixture is coarsely chopped.


    FOR THE SAUCE
    Combine marinara sauce, non-dairy milk, and brown sugar in a large bowl. Stir until combined.
