Chickpea Pot Pie

Sunday


This is an a-m-a-z-i-n-g dish! As a family who doesn't eat milk or dairy (due to allergies) dishes such as these are usually not as great as I remember them being as a child but this particular dish is amazing! Everyone in my family loves it and when we are finished eating you get the warm feeling inside like after eating thanksgiving dinner! As my boys turn into men I will need to make two of these to feed us, it's that good!


Ingredients:
2 3/4 cups veggie broth
1/2 cup nutritional yeast flakes
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1/2 cup oil
1 small potato, peeled and diced
1/2 cup corn
1/2 cup carrots, shredded or sliced thin
1 stick celery from stalk, sliced thin
1 cup chickpeas
1 box puff pastry sheets
dash garlic powder
Sea salt
White pepper

Directions:

Bring the vegetable broth to a boil then mix in celery, potatoes and carrots. Turn down to a simmer for about 10 minutes. Once the veggies are starting to soften separate the broth from the veggies.

Preheat the oven to 400F.

Mix the nutritional yeast and flour in a large pot. Next add the oil, stirring until blended. Slowly whisk in the stock, dash of garlic powder, salt and pepper to taste. Add the vegetables and chickpeas and cook for 10 minutes on low heat.

Place one sheet of puff pastry in a 9" dish and fold pastry edges down to fit. Pour in the filling and cover with the other pastry sheet folding edges under so they are hidden. Bake for 45 minutes or until the pastry is lightly golden.

Hi there! thanks so much for this idea. My daughter is attempting a vegetarian life style these days but chicken pot pie used to be one of her faves. I'll tuck this away to try in the fall : )

Definitely giving this a try! I usually do a tofu pot pie, but this sounds interesting. One question: do you use canned chick peas? That's what I'm assuming, just wanted to make sure!
Actually I lied--I have another question: the nutritional yeast flakes I've never used. Where can I find them? Is there something else I can use instead?
Thanks so much!

Hi googiemomm! I crock pot my my beans and freeze them in 1 cup portions for later use. Also, the nutritional yeast is important to this recipe since it lends a cheesy and wholesome flavor to the dish. I suggest picking some up as you can use it from anything from sprinkling on popcorn to making vegan cheesy sauces!

This looks really delicious, and so good for you with the chickpeas. I'm trying to cook more vegetarian recipes and this looks like a great one. Thank you for sharing it.

This is really a very clever recipe. The idea of making a tasty pot pie with chick peas as the main force is fantastic. I was wondering, is one half of a potato enough? Note, the potato fan in me.

Thanks for linking such a creative recipe to My Meatless Mondays.

Hi Sweet and Savory!!!! Thank you for coming by, I have a reader of your blog regularly for about 1.5 months!

In my recipe I use 1 potato but you can always add more if you like but I try to make all the veggies equal in parts since everyone here has their favorites too! I'm glad you like the recipe and I hope you if you make it, you can let me know what you think!

Yummy--I haven't made Chicken pot pie for a while and I always make homemade pastry but I love the puffed pastry.
