GREEN BEAN MUSHROOM POT PIES WITH MASHED POTATOES

Steps:

• To make Mashed Potatoes: Fill a medium pot with water, bring it to a boil, and add potatoes. Cover, and cook over medium heat for about 25 minutes, until potatoes are tender but still retain their shape. Drain, and add vegan margarine and mash potatoes with a potato masher, adding just enough plant-based milk to make a creamy texture. Make sure to create a texture thin enough to smooth over the surface of the pot pies. Season as desired with salt and pepper. Set aside. (Makes about 3 ½ cups)
• While potatoes are cooking, prepare the Green Bean Mushroom Filling.
• Heat olive oil in a large sauté pan.
• Add onions, garlic, carrots, and green beans, and sauté over medium heat for 5 minutes, stirring frequently.
• Add mushrooms, tempeh, poultry seasoning, celery salt, dried mustard, black pepper, parsley flakes, and sea salt (optional). Sauté for an additional 3 minutes, stirring frequently.
• In a small bowl, mix together broth, plant-based milk, soy sauce, and flour.
• Add to sauté pan and stir well. Simmer, covered, stirring frequently, for an additional 5 minutes, until vegetables are just crisp tender. (Makes about 6 cups).
• While vegetables are simmering, preheat oven to 400 F.
• Divide vegetable stew among 4 oven-proof soup or mini-casserole dishes (about 1 ½ cups per bowl). Top each dish with one-fourth of the mashed potatoes (about 3/4 cup each), smoothing over surface of stew. Alternatively, you may place all of the stew into one 2-quart baking dish, and top with all of the mashed potatoes.
• Place the dishes on the top rack of the oven and heat for about 15-20 minutes, until mixture is golden on top.

MASHED POTATOES AND STEAMED GREEN BEANS

Steps:

• You can boil the potatoes and steam the beans at the same time. Start with the potatoes: put them in a large pot and cover with cold water. Add 1 tablespoon salt and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer, uncovered, until the potatoes are tender when you stick a fork in them, about 30 minutes. At the same time, combine the cream and butter in a small saucepan and warm over low heat until the butter is melted. Remove from the heat and cover to keep warm.
• While the potatoes are cooking, start on the beans. Break the beans in half and put them in a colander large enough to fit over the pot the potatoes are cooking in; set aside. Now heat a large saucepan over medium heat. Drizzle 2 tablespoons of olive oil, add the bacon and cook until the fat is rendered, about 5 minutes. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until softened, about 3 minutes. Add the tomatoes to the pan, crushing them in your hand as you do so, to break them up. Stir in the sugar. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer, uncovered, until thickened, 7 to 8 minutes. Remove from the heat.
• When the potatoes have cooked about 20 minutes, put the colander over the pot and cover the whole thing with aluminum foil. Continue cooking until the beans are crisp-tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove the colander from pot and dump the beans into the pan with the tomato sauce; fold in the beans and season with salt and pepper.
• Now drain the potatoes in the same colander and dump them back into the pot. While the potatoes are still hot, pour in the warm cream and butter and mash the potatoes with a potato masher. Season with salt and pepper.
