WELCOME BACK TO "LIVING
808."
IT IS TIME FOR DELICIOUS AND
HEALTHY WITH DOWN TO EARTH.
WE'RE HERE IN THEIR COMMUNITY
ROOM WITH SISSY KONG WHO IS
GOING TO SHOW US TODAY HOW TO
MAKE A DISH FOR CHRISTMAS
PERFECT FOR ALL THE VEGANS,
VEGETARIANS OUT THERE.
ABSOLUTELY.
THIS IS OUR VEGAN CHRISTMAS PIE.
AT CHRISTMAS THE PIE IS USUALLY
AFULL OF MINCED BEEF OR
SOMETHING SIMILAR.
BUT WE'LL BE MAKING A LENTIL
MIXTURE.
IT'S SO DELICIOUS YOU'LL WANT TO
EAT THE WHOLE PIE.
I LOVE LENTILS.
WHAT IS THE NEXT STEP?
WE JUST COOK THEM IN VEGGIE
BLOJ TO BRING OUT THE EXTRA
FLAVOR.
WE JUST NEED TO MASH THEM.
IF YOU CAN MASH THEM HERE, WE'RE
GOING TO MASH THEM TO ABOUT
TWO-THIRDS OF THE LENTILS
MASHED.
AS YOU CAN TELL, I DON'T HAVE
A LOT OF EXPERIENCE MASHING.
I'M GOING TO PUT MY BACK INTO
IT.
THAT'S ACTUALLY REALLY GOOD.
YOU'VE GONE A GREAT JOB OF
MASHING.
ONCE WE'VE DONE THAT, WE'LL
I THINK WE'VE MADE THEM
MULTIPLE TIMES OVER THE MONTH.
OUR FLAX EGG IS BASICALLY A
VEGAN EGG REPLACEMENT.
A LOT OF TIMES WHEN WE MAKE
ANY DISHES THAT GO INTO THE
OVEN, WE USE EGG, OR PEOPLE USE
TOGETHER BUT THESE FLAX EGG WILL
HOLD IT ALL TOGETHER.
YOU JUST PUT THE GOLDEN FLAX
MEAL INTO THE WATER.
THE RATIO IS ALWAYS ONE OF THE
FLAX MEAL TOLL THREE OF THE
LIQUID.
ONE TABLE SPOON OF FLAX TO SIX
TABLE SPOONS OF LIQUID.
SO WE'LL MIX THAT ALTOGETHER AND
WE'LL HAVE THAT -- LET THAT SIT
FOR ABOUT TEN MINUTES SORE ONCE
IT'S COMBINED.
IT'S A GREAT JOB AND THEN WE'LL
MOVE ON TO A VEGGIES.
SO WE'VE GOT A GREAT SELECTION
OF VEGETABLES.
I ALWAYS LINK TO HOLIDAY SORT OF
MEALS.
SO I'VE USED A LOT WHEN THE
LEAKS IN THIS RECIPE.
THEY ARE QUITE BIG.
I'VE SEEN THEM.
THEY ARE QUITE HUGE.
WE'RE GOING TO THROW IN OUR
COCONUT OIL IF YOU WANT TO
SCRAPE THAT IN THERE.
YES.
ALL OF IT.
THIS IS ABOUT A TABLE SPOON OF
COCONUT OIL.
WE WERE MENTIONING OFFCAMERA
THAT IT KIND OF STAYS HARD
BECAUSE THE ROOM IS SO COLD.
NORMALLY AT ROOM TEMPERATURE IT
WILL BE A LITTLE MORE.
AND IT WILL MELT IN THE PAN
AS WELL.
AND THEN WE'LL PUT OUR VEGGIES
IN THERE.
LET YOU DO THAT.
GREAT.
AND I LOVE THE COMBINATION OF
THESE LEAKS WITH THE HERBS THAT
WE'VE CHOSEN FOR THIS RECIPE.
THEY ACTUALLY GO TOGETHER REALLY
WELL.
YOU'VE GOT CARROTS IN HERE,
SOME LEAKS AND CELERY.
WE'RE GOING TO KEEP SAUTÉING
THEM.
IT WILL TAKE ABOUT FIVE TO SEVEN
MINUTES.
THEM, WE WILL ADD IN OUR GARLIC
AND TALLET, DRIED TARRAGON AND
SALT.
WE'LL GO TO BREAK AND WHEN WE
COME BACK, WE'LL FINISH UP THIS
DISH.
CHRISTMAS PIE.
AMAZED HOW THEY CAN MAKE THESE
VEGETARIAN DISHES THAT TASTE SO
DELICIOUS.
I KNOW I'VE OFFENDED SOME
VEGETARIANS OUT THERE, BUT, YOU
KNOW, PEOPLE WHO ARE NOT
VEGETARIAN, THEY JUST ASSUME
THAT THEY ARE NOT GOING TO LIKE
THE TASTE OF VEGETARIAN DISHES
BUT THEY PROVE PEOPLE WRONG ALL
THE TIME BECAUSE WHAT THEY COME
UP WITH IS SO DELICIOUS AND IT'S
GOOD FOR YOU.
BETTER AND BETTER THE MORE
THEY EXPERIMENT WITH SPICES AND
DIFFERENT INGREDIENTS.
THERE'S SO MANY VICE.
IF YOU LOOK AT THEIR WEBSITE,
OF RECIPES, VEGETARIAN RECIPES
AND THEY ARE REALLY DELICIOUS.
YOU HAVE TO CHECK THEM OUT.
THEY ALSO HAVE THE PREPARED FOOD
SECTION AT THEIR STORES.
WHO AM I KIDDING?
MAKE IF FOR ME.
BUT THAT WAS THE FIRST TIME I
WAS EVER MASHING ANYTHING.
ALL RIGHT.
YOU DID GOOD.
