Gardein Meat Free Monday Week Four #gardeinparty

Gardein has asked me to help spread the word about their Meatless Monday Movement.  I can't believe it, but this is already the last week the Meatless Monday Challenge. Every Monday through the month of July, Gardein stopped in some of the biggest cities in America to share recipes samples and more. For those of us who aren't lucky enough to live close to the big cities, they are also sharing info with bloggers like me. For the last four weeks, my family enjoyed a wide range of meatless products, and including them in our meals was easy and fun.

For the last week of the challenge, I decided to get my husband involved. He is a real caveman who would eat nothing but meat from the bone if he could get away with it. One of his favorite snacks is a few buffalo wings to munch on along with a beer. I served him up some of the meatless buffalo wings from Gardein without telling him they weren't just any normal wings. He noticed there were no bones, but didn't think much of it. He said they were awesome. When I told him they were meatless, his jaw practically hit the floor.  For some real fun with your buffalo wings, try this recipe:

Chick'n Tandoori Kebabs
ingredients

gardein
1 pkg	gardein chick'n wings

other ingredients
1 pkg	tandoori marinade, prepared
1 cup	crispy papadums
1 cup	english cucumber, seeded and finely diced
1 cup	tomato, peeled, seeded and finely diced
1/4 cup	red onion, finely diced
2 tbsp	cilantro, chopped
8	lime wedges

instructions

Soak skewers and thaw chick'n wings for 30 minutes. Oil and preheat grill to medium high heat.

Meanwhile combine cucumber, tomato, cilantro, and red onion and set aside.

Thread gardein chick’n wings onto each skewer and oil wings well.

Cook skewers until the chick’n is caramelized and hot, approximately 5-7 minutes, brushing with tandoori marinade as the wings cook.

Serve with crispy papadums, a salad of finely diced cucumber, tomato, and red onion with cilantro, and wedges of lime for squeezing
