Instructions
 

  • Start with your crust- mix all ingredients together and press onto pie or tart pan.
  • Mix all ingredients together and press onto pie or tart pan. Bake at 375 for 15 minutes (until cooked through). Tip: Add foil on top of the crust and press down, this will prevent from rising and will ensure the crust does not burn.
  • Boil all of your veggies until soft- transfer to a high speed blender- add all of the spices and mix together, set aside.
  • Now boil your pasta until halfway cooked. Mix together pasta and sauce then transfer to pre-made cornbread crust.
  • Sprinkle vegan cheese on the top if you are using and then add your bread crumbs.
  • Put back in a preheated oven at 375 for 15 minutes, checking to ensure your bread crumbs are not burning- cover with foil if the crust starts to overbrown. Serve with hot sauce and a side of collard greens! Enjoy!
