Ingredients
  

  • 3 cup cooked vegetables see notes
  • 2 cup red lentil flour
  • 1 cup warm water
  • 2 tbsp gluten-free tamari
  • 2 tbsp poultry seasoning
  • 2 tbsp ground flax
  • 2 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp ground celery seeds

Instructions
 

  • Pulse the roasted vegetables in a food processor until pea-sized. Add to a large mixing bowl along with all of the other ingredients, and mix until well combined.
  • Cut the parchment paper into roughly 7 1/2" x 7 1/2" squares, and use 1/4 cup of the mix to form a sausage shape at one end, leaving an inch either side so you can twist the parchment once rolled.

  • Place the sausages into a steamer so the parchment seam is facing down, and steam covered for 20 minutes.
  • Once steamed, allow the sausages to rest for 10 minutes before removing them from the parchment so they can firm up.

Notes

  • These sausages can be enjoyed hot or cold.
  • You can store these in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days, or freeze for longer.
  • It doesn't matter what roasted vegetables you use. You can use a combination of any root vegetables, mushrooms, onions, cauliflower, or squash.
  • You can make your own lentil flour by grinding split red lentils into a flour in a high-speed blender. Note that this is a very light flour, so try not to breathe it in when using it.
