SHEPHERD'S PIE NUTRITION LOADED VEGAN, LOW CARB & LOW FAT

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Take the veggie crumbles into a pan. Add the Coleman's mix (this is basically the gravy that makes this pie famous) and enough water until the gravy is just a little bit watery, but still on the "thick" side. (remember, the moisture from the frozen peas and carrots will dilute and add to the water content, so you want to keep that gravy only a little watery).
• Add frozen peas & carrots and mix everything together until heated. About 5 minutes.
• Pour everything into an oven backing dish and cover with cauliflower and broccoli puree instead of using mashed potatos. (This will add A LOT of vitamins and nutrients instead of using potatos which would spike your blood sugar).
• Place into the oven and bake for about 25 minutes.
• Let the pie set for about 5 minutes before cutting it up and serving.
• Enjoy without guilt!
