15 mins prepServes 4
A high-protein, vegan, and gluten-free bagel melt recipe featuring a textured vegetable protein 'tuna' mix with kelp flakes for a sea flavor, dairy-free cheese, and fresh herbs.
Preheat oven to 350 F and line a baking tray with parchment, set aside. To a small pot add: 1 ½ cups water, kelp flakes, oil, and ½ tsp salt. Bring to a boil. Remove from heat and add textured vegetable protein. Stir together well and let marinate, 10-15 minutes. To a mixing bowl add: vegan mayo, dijon mustard, jalapeno, pickles, pickle juice, green onions and herbs of choice. Mix well to combine, set in the fridge. Spread your marinated textured vegetable protein across baking tray and bake for 10-15 minutes, or until lightly browned but not crispy. Allow to cool completely. Turn oven to broil. Add textured protein to mayo sauce and mix well to coat. Lightly toast your bagel, and add to a baking tray. Cover in “tuna” mix and top with dairy free cheese of choice. Place in the oven under broil and allow to heat through and cheese to get melty. Enjoy!
