My first recipe review will be Vegan Shepherds Pie. A friend of mine told me about this recipe after she made it, and printed it out for me. This recipe comes from the web site https://www.thekitchn.com/recipe-lentil-and-mushroom-sweet-potato-shepherds-pie-182683 I have made this dish three times now. Vegan shepherds pie is what I had for Thanksgiving this year and even the non vegans thought it was delicious. The only thing different is I used regular mashed potato not mashed sweet potato and I finley chopped all the mushrooms. I prefer all my mushrooms and vegetables diced in my recipes, thats just my personal preference. When I make it, I double the recipe because you can freeze the mixture to use at a later date. The only change I made to the recipe is that I added corn to the mixture. It is good plain or you can make a vegan mushroom gravy, or I have used a couple of soup recipes as a kind of gravy too. I made a butternut squash soup that was pretty thick and a carrot soup recipe that was thick too and both were delicious used as a gravy. When I made this dish for Thanksgiving this year I made it a couple of days ahead and wrapped it and put it in the fridge. This way on Thanksgiving day I just had to bake it and was not interfering too much with a very busy kitchen on Thanksgiving day. Someday I will make this with mashed sweet potato and will update this post. If you make it please provide feedback on what you thought about this great dish. Just go to thekitchn.com and search for vegan shepherds pie or Lentil, Mushroom & Sweet Potato Shepherds Pie. This recipe is Totally Vegan.
