casserole

This was my favorite dish at a raw vegan potluck I attended, made by the hostess who ever-so-greatly shared her recipe. She says she celebrates Christmas with this dish. It's a quick and easy recipe that doesn't require a whole bunch of exotic ingredients and equipment. She originally suggests to use 1/2 teaspoon of salt - I used less than that and still found it too salty, so I would suggest starting out with 1/4 teaspoon of salt and take it from there. She also adds 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract to the yam / sweet potato mix but I didn't use any. The mixture is soft but it does somewhat hold its shape. I did a quick calorie estimate for those interested and it comes out to about 2400 calories, so that comes out to about 480/400 calories for each piece a 5/6-serving dish.

*Update* I found out that what I was using was a Sweet Potato and not a Yam, so I made the change. Btw I think it's weird how someone rated this recipe with 2 stars only a moment after I posted it...

One Thanksgiving I told my mother that I could make any dish that she could name into a raw dish. It took her no time at all to reply, "French's Green Bean Casserole." I said, "I will find a way."

Guess what, mom? I did it...

I am about to have a squash explosion in my garden, so I wanted to be ready. I tried this casserole with some store bought, because I didn’t want to waste my precious babies! It turned out great. It is an imitation of a cooked dish I used to love.
