It’s such a perfect way to enjoy a vegan protein packed meal during that BBQ with fam and friends!!

Healthy Vegan BBQ Steaks

I’grew up eating tons of meat in the Chilean Patagonia, and while I do not miss meat these days, I wanted to create a tasty recipe I could enjoy during BBQs with fam and friends. I love it because it’s:

  1. Healthier than most Vegan BBQ recipes I’ve seen, I even added lentils to this one.

  2. Super quick and easy to make.

  3. Packed with protein.

  4. It provides enough energy and protein to use it as a post-workout meal!


Ingredients

  • Vital wheat gluten

  • Chickpea flour

  • Lentils

  • BBQ sauce

  • Soy sauce

  • Molasses

  • Dijon mustard

  • Onion powder

  • Garlic powder

  • Olive oil

  • Vegetable broth

  • Steak spice


Don’t worry, you don’t taste the chickpea flour and lentils, you taste the BBQ flavor and the amazing texture!

Cashews: You can use cashew butter instead of cashews (or any nut butter or nut-free butter). This time I used cashews but I have also made the recipe with peanut butter. If you go that route, you will need only ½ cup + 2 tbsp nut butter.

Lentils: I usually use red lentils but green, brown, or black lentils also work.


How to Make Vegan BBQ Steaks?

You need a food processor or blender, a bowl, and a pot to cook the steaks!

  • Mix wet ingredients in a food processor and blend.

  • Add everything in a bowl and knead to form the dough.

  • Stretch your dough and separate into pieces, aka BBQ steaks.

  • Cook them in a saucepan.
