Curried Root Vegetable Casserole [vegan] [gluten free]

For a thrifty and hearty meal, look no further than this vegan Curried Root Vegetable Casserole.

Curried Root Vegetable Casserole [vegan] [gluten free]

For a thrifty and hearty meal, look no further than this vegan Curried Root Vegetable Casserole. Carrots, parsnips, and potatoes are smothered in a rich and creamy tomato coconut sauce.

This is a comforting one-pot meal that the whole family will enjoy. Red lentils and chickpeas boost the protein content of this recipe. Serve it with wholegrain rice and/or wholemeal pitta bread. Sprinkles of fresh coriander and spring onions will add extra flavours.

This Curried Root Vegetable Casserole is quite straightforward to make, just make sure you cut the vegetables in even pieces (as per instructions below) so they cook evenly together.

Today we celebrate Earth Day 2019 with a focus this year on protecting the millions of species that inhabit our planet.

The unprecedented global destruction and rapid reduction of plant and wildlife populations are directly linked to causes driven by human activity: climate change, deforestation, habitat loss, trafficking and poaching, unsustainable agriculture, pollution and pesticides to name a few. The impacts are far-reaching.

Food, especially meat production, takes a major toll on the environment. Each week, many of us make decisions about food 3 times a day, 7 days a week. That’s 21 opportunities to make a difference and help preserve species around us. One of the easiest ways to reduce our ecological footprint is to choose to eat less meat.

This Earth Day I have teamed up with other bloggers to create the selection of delicious sustainable food recipes below. Enjoy!

    This casserole sounds absolutely scrumptious! I love curry flavors but I don’t always want to prepare a proper curry. This is packed full of delicious veggies and legumes and looks delicious! Thank you for participating in our Earth Day event! ❤️

    Incredible recipe! Maybe one of the best veggie curries I’ve ever made. I used proportionately more ingredients (about 500g each of the potatoes, carrots and parsnip) and coconut milk instead of creamed coconut. It’s so rich and spicy, and the texture of the parsnips is just wonderful. Thanks!

This scrumptious vegan chocolate courgette cake is a perfect example of how delicious plant-based baking can be. Pure indulgence! This is one of the most popular dessert recipes on the blog.

The courgettes are the secret and (very) discreet ingredient. You cannot taste them but they add moisture and texture as well as 1 of your 5 a day to this scrumptious chocolate cake.

Grab the recipe on the blog. Link in my bio.

If you pick up this month's issue of veganfoodandliving you might spot a few of my recipes including my crunchy Asian red cabbage slaw. 

Tossed in a deliciously zingy lime dressing and topped with peanuts, toasted sesame seeds, coriander and mint this colourful dish is bursting with so many delicious flavours.

Bursting with flavours this Garlic & Tomato Pasta makes a delicious and easy summer dish that is perfect for this hot weather. You can serve it slightly warm or at room temperature. It is also scrumptious the next day as a cold leftover.

This is an old family recipe that back home we call Pâtes à l’ail. Growing up, my Sicilian great-aunt (yes I am a 1/4 Italian in case you did not know 😉) would make it for us in the summer when tomatoes are at their best. 

Like any recipe that has been passed down through generations, creating a written version of it, involved quite a few phone calls between my mum and one of our cousins. Everyone in the family makes this Garlic & Tomato Pasta from memory, adding their own twist and using approximate quantities of ingredients. My version is even more different as I have added cannellini beans for protein.

You can find the recipe on the blog. Link in my bio.
