Ingredients

To whip up this delicious Vegan Tofu and Vegetable Pot Pie, you will need the following ingredients:

  • 1 pre-made vegan pie crust (store-bought or homemade)
  • 14 oz firm tofu, pressed and cubed
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 cup carrots, diced
  • 1 cup peas (fresh or frozen)
  • 1 cup potatoes, diced
  • 1 cup vegetable broth
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon thyme
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch mixed with 2 tablespoons water (optional for thickening)

Instructions

Follow these simple steps to create your very own Vegan Tofu and Vegetable Pot Pie:

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced carrots and potatoes, and sauté for about 5-7 minutes until they start to soften.
  3. Add the cubed tofu and peas to the skillet. Pour in the vegetable broth, soy sauce, thyme, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Stir well, and let it simmer for about 10 minutes. If you want to thicken the filling, mix in the cornstarch mixture and cook until the sauce thickens.
  4. Once the filling is ready, remove it from the heat and allow it to cool slightly.
  5. Roll out the pie crust and place it in a pie dish. Pour the tofu and vegetable filling into the crust, spreading it evenly.
  6. Cover the filling with another layer of pie crust. Make sure to cut slits on the top crust for steam to escape.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until the crust is golden brown.
  8. Let it cool for a few minutes before slicing. Serve warm and enjoy!
