Method

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C).

  2. 2

    Roast the red bell pepper on a baking sheet, turning once, until charred and soft. Let it cool slightly, then peel and remove the seeds.

  3. 3

    Blend the roasted peppers, tofu, soy milk, nutritional yeast, tomato paste, miso, garlic, paprika, turmeric, onion powder, salt, and pepper until completely smooth.

  4. 4

    Cook the chorizo seitan. Crumble the chorizo seitan nto small ground-beef-style pieces and cook in a pan over medium-high heat until browned and slightly crispy.

  5. 5

    Cook the gnocchi according to package directions, then drain.

  6. 6

    Pour the roasted red pepper sauce into the pan and warm for 2–3 minutes.

  7. 7

    Add spinach and cook for 2-3 minutes on low heat until wilted.

  8. 8

    Add the cooked gnocchi and gently toss until completely coated.

  9. 9

    Top with the chorizo seitan and a few fresh basil leaves.

Storage

Store in the fridge for 3–4 days. Reheat with a small splash of water or plant milk to loosen the sauce. Keep the seitan separate during meal prep if you want it to stay firmer.

Good to know
  • For a crispier texture, pan-fry the gnocchi for a few minutes after cooking before tossing it in the sauce. You can also add vegan cheese for extra richness, then finish with a drizzle of sriracha for more heat or balsamic glaze for a slightly sweet, tangy contrast.
