chicken-mozarella
Ingredients:
4 vegetarian chick'n breasts (I like the Quorn brand)
1 Tbsp ground flax seeds/flax meal or chia seeds
6 Tbsp water
1/2 cup bread crumbs
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp Italian seasoning
1 cup pasta sauce, preferably low sodium
3/4 cup vegan mozzarella cheese (I like the Daiya brand)
2 Tbsp olive oil

Directions:
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.  Lightly grease a baking dish large enough to hold all for chick'n breasts.
Whisk the ground flax/chia seed and water together, to form a thick egg-like mixture.  Place bread crumbs, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning in a shallow plate and mix together.  Dip a chick'n breast in the flax/chia mixture then dredge in the bread crumb mixture coating both sides.  Repeat with the rest of the chick'n.
In a large, non-stick skillet, heat oil over medium high heat.  Add chick'n and saute for about 3-4 minutes each side, until each side is nicely browned.
Place the chick'n breasts in the baking dish, pour the tomato sauce over them then top with cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15  minutes or until cheese is melted.  Put under the broiler for a few minutes if the cheese hasn't melted after 15 minutes. 
Serve on top of cooked pasta of your choice.  Pair with steamed broccoli and whole grain garlic toast for a complete meal!
