Vegan Moussaka

 

Looking for a vegan meal for Saturday of Lazarus or Palm Sunday?  This is definitely "Company Worthy."   I posted a recipe for OCN of a Vegan Moussaka and it's delicious!

 

 

 

 



 

For more detailed info on the "Cream" Sauce...

 

“Cream” Sauce:

Boil 5c water in a large saucepan and remove from heat.  Stir in 3/4c instant potato flakes until dissolved and set aside.

 

 

 

Heat ½ c oil in medium saucepan.  Stir in ¾ c flour and cook while stirring until it turns a golden color. 

 

 

Lower heat and slowly stir in potato water, stirring constantly to avoid lumps.  Season with salt, pepper and nutmeg.  

 

 

 

Dinner and Palm Sunday Cross Making

I never had any luck with baked veggies till recently.  The oven was never hot enough.  Yet, I thought I'd try it one more time.

I cut up eggplant, potatoes, zucchini, onions, garlic. Poured in a can of diced tomatoes, and a ton of oil. Sprinkled oregano, salt and a touch of cumin.

Slid it into a 450 degree oven and I waited.

It was looking pretty good... but it wasn't cooking fast enough, so I hiked the temp to broil and planned to get back to it.

Then I remembered I wanted to make this video on PALM FOLDING.

 

And then I remembered my dinner!!!!  

 

 

Eggplants

Do you salt your eggplant before you cook it? I do. It removes bitterness.

I'm preparing a roasted veggie mix of eggplant, potatoes and onions for dinner tonight. Wish I had zucchini. I'm sure it will still taste yummy.
