Ingredients

4 medium carrots
1/2 red onion
finely chopped 2 large potatoes, peeled and roughly chopped
3/4 cups vegetable stock
1/4 cups puy lentils

Add a little bit of vegan margarine to make them buttery if you wish. Butter the ovenproof pie dish(es).

AUTHOR & RECIPE DETAILS

After turning vegan, I discovered a particular talent for baking delicious cruelty-free cakes and cookies. It was then that my friends named me ‘The Vegan Cookie Fairy’ and my blog was born. I find happiness in preparing and eating food that is good for my body and soul — but cats and yoga help, too.
