Community Plant Based Recipe Swap

On August 23, Pastor Śānti Matthews preached on the three versions of Jesus' mustard seed parables ( view here ) and gave each person attending worship a small bag of mustard seeds and this recipe. As you eat, notice the depth of flavor that the mustard seeds bring to the recipe.

  Jane splurged at the NC Farmers Market, bringing home all kinds of summer goodness.  While this is an obvious appetizer or side for late summer harvest time, it would probably taste just as good with veggies bought at the grocery store.  

 Do you ever get a craving for a childhood favorite?  Jane recently recalled her sister-in-law's crockpot full of sloppy joes that appeared for summer celebrations and went in search of a plant-based alternative.  Be sure to choose the buns of your childhood, whether pillow-soft or crusty-dense.  Can be made gluten-free if you choose a GF bun and GF condiments.
