Vegetarian shepherd’s pie made with leftover mashed potatoes, lentil soup, bulgur wheat, zucchini, yellow squash, kale, and mushrooms.
Ingredients:
- cooking spray
- 1 tbsp. olive oil
- 1 medium onion, diced

- 1 small yellow squash, thinly sliced
- 8 oz. button mushrooms, sliced
- 1-17.6 oz. carton Roasted Garlic Mushroom Lentil Soup

Method:
- Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees and coat a 2-3 qt. casserole dish with cooking spray.
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and cook until softened, about 6 minutes. Add zucchini, squash, and mushrooms and cook 5-6 minutes more, or until soft. Add soup, kale and bulgur; reduce heat to low and cover. Simmer for 5 minutes, until mixture has thickened and kale has wilted.

I’m hungry and out of food, but found these two items I am wondering if possible to make the groats, which I’ve never made before, using the veg broth for flavor. Any ideas or instruction recipes?
Hey thanks Anne! I actually have 2 onions and olive oil too! I think I will try out your recipe! how much oil should I use to fry the onions in?

I have leftover soup sitting in my freezer containing black beans, corn, and bulgur wheat (as well as other veggies) and was thinking a southwest casserole would be cool! So aside from adding crumbled tortilla chips on top, should I do a white cream sauce, or something else as a binder? Also, which spices should I definitely include and would adding some salsa make it tasty? This will be vegan. Thank you!

I sprayed cooking oil onto my baking sheet, as directed by a recipe. There is now a brown layer of cooked-on cooking spray on the baking sheet. I have tried scraping it off and it has been through the dishwasher a few times. It isn’t hardened or burnt, but it’s sticky. What can I do?
