Preparation

Step 1

Directions:

Preheat oven to 400°F. Make pie crust as directed, and freeze bottom shell in pie plate.

In a medium saucepan over medium high heat, melt vegan butter and palm oil. Add leeks, garlic, habenero peppers and herbs. Sauté until tender.

Add flour and brown to a light roux. Add asparagus, carrots, peas and seitan. Cook for 3-5 more minutes on low flame.

Add mixture to frozen pie shell, top with pie shell.

Bake for 35 minutes, remove from oven and allow to set for several minutes before serving.

Tips:

Use a broth with minimal “taste” to it. Some vegan broths can overpower a dish with a very specific flavor.

Brown the seitan or your desired protein in a pan separate with a little oil to enhance flavor.
