Yall, I wanna be a good cook real bad. I watch Top Chef, Chopped, Etc. and I’m all like “Why can’t I do that?” So step 1 was getting myself some good vegan cookbooks- which I did thanks to Christmas presents.
Since becoming a veg head a few years back I have missed Chicken Pot Pies SO much. So when my THE VEGAN TABLE cookbook had a recipe for a tempeh and eggplant pot pie I was all like, DUH.
I changed a few things- like I’m still scared of tempeh so I used tofu. And fennel seeds sounded too uppity for me so I used chopped almonds. And I added chopped kale for extra health, and cause I love my new food processor more than any other appliance.
Baked the tofu, steamed the eggplant, baked the pie crust, sauteed the veggies then baked the pie. I. FREAKIN. COOKED.
It might look gross in the pic but it was SO GOOD. And ALL VEGAN BITCH.
I’ve never felt more like an amazing person. Goal is to hard-core cook at least once a week.
