Tasty Tuesday Recipe

Happy Tasty Tuesday!

Who’s in the mood for Morselicious Veggie Pot Pies?!

First:  the Filling:

Chopped Carrots, Zucchini, Peas

Fresh Parsley

Pepper

Apple Cider Vinega

Cayenne

Cashew Cream

Hemp Protein Powder

Coconut Milk

Toasted Hemp Seeds

Mix well

In separate bowl: the TOPPING

Add 4 TBSP Water to

3/4 – 1 C MORSELICIOUS MIX

3/4 Mashed Sweet Potato

Form into a ball 

 

I used Muffin Tins for smaller pot pies

and sprayed the tins with Olive Oil

then scooped the Veggie Filling into each tin

and covered with Morselicious Pie Crust

Bake for 16-22 minutes on 350

and serve with a simple slaw or salad!

Mmmmmmm

 

I just read this article with horrifying

facts in DIABETIC LIVING MAGAZINE:

Frozen meals are convenient, but their high sodium and fat content can make them unhealthy choices

One of the biggest culprits is the ultimate comfort food — potpie. Whether you pick up a frozen variety at the market or order one at a restaurant, the potpie is a megaviolator:

  1. Oh Yumm! Trader Joe’s used to have an indiv. size veggie pot pie that I loved and, of course, they stopped carrying it. Can’t wait to try this – especially love the muffin tin idea!!

  2. I have everything for that recipe, save cashew cream. It looks so simple but delicious! I’ve got to stop reading your recipes while hungry. Haha
