While it cooks, add oil to saucepan and sweat onions. Then add the carrots and 1 cup vegetable stock. Let cook. 4. Add dry TVP to bowl and pour boiling water to cover. Let soak. 5.

Mash with a potato masher, leaving no lumps, and season. Set aside. 7. Preheat oven to 350F. 8. Add remaining ingredients to the vegetables: TVP (drained), corn, seasoning, and remaining stock. Let cook for 2-3 minutes. 9. Place vegetable and TVP mix at the bottom of a deep baking dish, spread evenly. Top with mashed yams and smoothen. 10. Sprinkle sesame seeds and paprika for garnish. 11. Bake in pre-heated oven for 15-20 minutes until top begins to brown. [/recipe-directions][/recipe]

In a hurry? Here are some ideas:

  • Use frozen veggies instead
  • Reserve the water in which you cooked the potatoes to use if you don’t have vegetable stock on hand
  • Use ready-to-go TVP from brands like Yves or Gardein. Use a 312g package.
  • Or substitute TVP for finely diced mushrooms!

If there’s something you don’t like or don’t have, just substitute. Add some celery, a sprig of thyme or rosemary in step 3, or use cauliflower instead of yams/potatoes/pumpkins in the mash. Have fun and happy eating!
