Pecan Crusted Seitan

I made this last week for my family dinner (I am secretly converting them to veganism by cooking three vegan meals a week) and they LOVED it. My mom and step-dad particually enjoyed it because of the seitan's chewy texture and its ability to absorb all of the flavors. According to my step-dad this is a "five star" recipe. Thanks Alicia!
yahooooo!!! im soooo happy ...thank you!!!! and thank your cute step dad!!!! and bless you for cooking for your family!!!! and making them healthy! and healing their hearts! you are an angel
I also made this last night for my boyfriend and myself. (He is hesitently joining my new journey, but is very supportive. I thikn he just loves saying say-tan, :) )
We made our first visit to Vitamin Cottage to find this seitan and the other items. But, the only seitan that VC had was chicken flavored, and I was shocked by the sodium content! Yuck. I had my heart set on making this recipe so I bought it anyway. I rinsed it off to try to rinse off the salt. It was very good actually, but noticeably salty. I had a hard time eating it all.
BUT, the seitan passed the test with my boyfriend, and me! We really liked the texture; it does a nice job mimicking meat. I am going to visit Whole Foods and hope they have unflavored.
Also, the rustic pasta was yummy! One more dish from The Kind Diet to add to regular rotation!
Thank you for sharing!
