Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Halve the peeled sweet potatoes lengthwise, then cut into slices about 1 inch thick.

  2. Place the sweet potato slices in a large pot and cover with about 1-2 inches of water.

  3. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer on medium-low and cook until fork-tender (about 10 mins.) Drain. 

  4. Mash the sweet potatoes with a fork or potato masher. Season with salt & pepper.

  5. While the potatoes are cooking, saute the carrots in vegetable stock in a medium-sized pot. Add in lentils and water. Bring to a boil and then turn down to a simmer for 15 minutes or until just tender. 

  6. Stir the peas and corn into the pot of lentils, cook for an additional 5 minutes.

  7. Season the lentil mixture with the soy sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, and vegan Worcestershire sauce. Add pepper and salt to taste.

  8. Pre-heat oven to 425F degrees.

Tastes just like meat! So yummy

Kristine Rotella ★ 5.0/5

My go-to shepherds pie recipe. I tweak it with a bit more seasoning and I add flour to some stock for the veggie layer to add a gravy quality.

Megan ★ 5.0/5

This was delicious! Thank you for a great recipe

christina ★ 4.0/5

In step 5 you mention " saute the carrots in vegetable stock" but vegetable stock is not mentioned in the recipe list. How much stock should we be using?

ADLT ★ 3.0/5

Loved this idea, added mushrooms, veg stock, sage, thyme, and parsley. Cause flavor.

Did you make this recipe?

Thanks for rating!
