While we were preparing for Kate’s engagement party, we whipped up something new that surprisingly satisfied both veg and meat eaters alike: Seitan BBQ sliders with cabbage and kale slaw on honey oat rolls.

Here’s the low down below.

Cabbage Kale Slaw

• 1/2 red cabbage
• 1/2 bunch of kale
• 2 braeburn apples
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 1/2 red onion
• 1/2 cup sunflower seeds
• 1/2 cup olive oil and apple cider vinegar
• Honey or agave syrup to taste

Meatless BBQ Slider

• 2 packs of Upton’s Naturals Italian seitan
• 1/2 white onion
• BBQ sauce
• Mariano’s Honey Oat rolls (or any gourmet buns)

Sauteed seitan and onion until onion is translucent.  Add bottle of your favorite BBQ sauce (we chose Sweet Baby Ray’s, a Chi town gem) and stir until hot.

Put on favorite gourmet bun and slap the slaw and add bun on top.

Congrats on your engagement, Kate!  Always Love You!  From your bestie and future sister-in-law, Mon! ❤
