Hearty Lentil and Vegetable Shepherd's Pie
Hearty lentils and garden vegetables simmered in a savory herb gravy, topped with a velvety, golden-brown nutritional yeast cauliflower mash.
INGREDIENTS
1 cup cooked brown lentils
0.33 cup frozen peas
0.5 cup diced carrots
0.5 cup diced onion
2 cloves minced garlic
1 tbsp tomato paste
0.5 cup low-sodium vegetable broth
1 tsp dried thyme
1 tsp dried rosemary
0.5 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
2 cups cauliflower florets
4 tbsp nutritional yeast
1 tbsp unsweetened almond milk
PREPARATION
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
Place cauliflower florets in a steamer basket over boiling water and cook for 10-12 minutes until very tender.
In a large skillet over medium heat, sauté the diced onion, carrots, and minced garlic with a splash of vegetable broth for 5 minutes until softened.
Stir in the cooked lentils, frozen peas, tomato paste, dried thyme, dried rosemary, and the remaining vegetable broth.
Simmer the mixture for 5-7 minutes until the liquid has thickened into a light gravy, then season with half of the sea salt and the black pepper.
Transfer the steamed cauliflower to a bowl and mash thoroughly with the nutritional yeast, almond milk, and the remaining sea salt until smooth and creamy.
Spread the lentil mixture into a small baking dish and top with an even layer of the cauliflower mash.
Bake for 15-20 minutes until the topping is lightly golden and the filling is bubbling.
