What you need to make Vegan Sausage Gravy:
This gravy only has a few ingredients but if you are new to a plant-based or vegan diet a couple of them may be new to you. This is everything you need to know to make this delicious Breakfast Gravy!
Brazil nuts:
These are the big nuts that come in the mixed nuts but, you can buy them in a bag from the grocery store or online.
Brazil nuts are high in selenium, which is a trace mineral vital for proper body function.
Selenium ensures a healthy thyroid and helps to keep your immune system functioning at its best. Higher levels of selenium can help strengthen your immune system and improve your outcomes with various health conditions, such as cancer, heart disease, infections, and infertility. Eating just two Brazil nuts a day can help to maintain or increase your selenium intake as effectively as a supplement. According to this article in on webMD brazil nuts have a ton of health benefits!
Nutritional yeast flakes:
Nutritional yeast flakes also known as “yeast flakes”, “nutritional yeast” or “Nooch”. It has protein, B vitamins, including B12 along with cheesy flavor. I use it in a lot of recipes as a flavor enhancer but it can simply be sprinkled on top of food like popcorn, toast, pasta, it’s good on almost everything.
Braggs Liquid Aminos:
Bragg’s Liquid Aminos is a slightly healthier version of soy sauce, it’s a versatile, nutrient-rich seasoning that offers lots of health benefits. It provides essential and nonessential amino acids, making them an excellent protein and has less sodium than soy sauce, plus it’s, gluten-free and its umami flavor helps reduce hunger. It is the perfect addition to this vegan sausage gravy recipe.
Beef style seasoning:
This is a powdered beef flavored broth that is completely vegan. If you live in fairly large city it is often in your grocery store’s soup isle with the regular broth powders. But if you can’t find it their check your health food store or order online. McKays Beef Style Seasoning is a good brand.
