Veggie and Vegan HOT WINGS recipe!

I love the Spotted Dog.
If you haven't been there, they have a great selection of delicious vegetarian, vegan and meat-eater dishes. My favorite dish, by far, is their Veggie Hot Wings. After a few attempts, I can finally say that I have a Veggie Hot Wing recipe that rivals! And it's a lot cheaper!
Enjoy!

My Favorite Veggie Hot Wings Recipe
Serves 6

Ingredients:
2 Bags of Delight Soy Nuggets
1 cup Franks Red Hot Sauce
1/2 cut of *butter or margarine
1 Tsp Garlic powder
1 Tbsp Chili Powder
1.5 Tbsp *Honey (leave out Honey to make these Vegan)
Celery and *Bleu Cheese

In a large pot, combine Frank's Red Hot Sauce, butter, garlic powder, chili powder and honey. Heat until desired temperature.

At the same time, in a large skillet with a little bit of hot Olive Oil fry the Soy Nuggets until crispy, flipping as necessary. Dab excess Olive Oil from Soy Nuggets and toss into Hot Sauce pot. Mix until evenly coated and serve on a plate garnished with celery and bleu cheese!

*To make these Vegan: substitute butter with a non-dairy butter alternative, use half Tbsp of brown sugar, and try this Vegan Bleu Cheese recipe (I haven't tried it yet):

1/4 C extra firm or firm tofu crumbled, drained, patted dry
1 large garlic clove minced
1/4 C lemon juice
1/2 C vegan mayo (Vegenaise)
2 T tahini
2 tsp white miso
2 tsp apple cider vinegar
2 T fresh parsley
2 tsp fresh chives (dry is just fine)
pinch pepper and salt
soymilk if you like it thin

Crumble tofu, mix it all up, let it sit a bit, ENJOY
Also thrown it all in the blender to great success.
