Vegan Sloppy Joes

This recipe was shared with me by a family member when they heard I had adopted a vegan diet. I have tweaked the original recipe from the Imus Ranch Cookbook for kids and cowboys, which includes a bunch of delicious vegan recipes and helps raise money for kids with cancer.


Vegan Cowboy Sloppy Joes:

Ingredients:
    2 Tablespoons Olive Oil
    1 medium Onion, diced
    1 green Pepper, diced
    4 cloves Garlic, peeled and sliced
    2 teaspoons dried Oregano
    3 Tablespoons Balsamic vinegar
    32 oz Tomato Juice
    14.5 oz Fire-roasted diced Tomatoes
    1/2 teaspoon Salt
    1/2 teaspoon Black Pepper
    2 Tablespoons Worcestershire sauce**
    1 teaspoon spicy mustard (optional)
    4 Cups Textured Vegetable Protein
    8 Hamburger Buns
    Optional: 2 cups shredded soy mozzarella cheese
   **If you don't happen to have Worcestershire sauce, for this recipe you can substitute:
   1 Tablespoon Chili Powder  
   1 Tablespoon Soy Sauce 
   1/2 Tablespoon Apple Cider Vinegar 
   1/2 Tablespoon Brown Sugar 
   1 teaspoon Lime Juice
   add 1/2 clove Garlic to the original amount




How To
-Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. 
-When the oil is shimmering, add the onion, garlic and oregano & sauté until tender, 6 to 8 minutes. 
-Add the balsamic vinegar and boil to reduce by half, about 3 minutes. 
-Transfer everything to a larger pot and add vegetable cocktail, tomatoes, salt, pepper, Worcestershire sauce**, and mustard and bring to a low boil. Simmer for 15 minutes, 

-Add the textured veggie protein and stir until it is softened and the liquid is absorbed.
