April 21, 2016 35 Comments

Delicious vegan shepherd’s pie with sweet potatoes and veggies cooked in red wine sauce + vegan wine giveaway!

Some may say shepherd’s pie is a classic autumn/winter food, but I refuse to believe those people. Shepherd’s pies are awesome comfort food anytime of the year! What not to love in those hearty vegetables with a spicy red wine and tomato sauce, topped with fluffy mashed sweet potatoes. Right? It’s all baked to bubbly, flavourful perfection to impress any non-vegans. This vegan shepherd’s pie is so delightful, nutritious and satisfying you definitely won’t miss the meat! Though it’s not a 10-minute recipe, it’s still pretty easy to make, plus you don’t have a lot of work with it. It also freezes well, so you can cook a big portion of it and freeze in individual small portions….

Over 250 stunning cheap & easy vegan meal ideas. All recipes are budget-friendly, no-fuss, quick and simple to make, and very very delicious!

I think most people can go along with the ideology of veganism. Nobody wants to cause suffer and pain, nobody wants to hurt animals, nobody wants to mistreat and enslave another living beings. Most people are true animal lovers, and have dogs and cats who are their family members. Most people probably also agree that from a dietary or nutritional standpoint a vegan diet is pretty beneficial. You know… veggies…. and stuff. And most people also care about the environment. We try to reduce our plastic usage as much as possible, we recycle and don’t run the water while brushing our teeth. We love to see the fair trade and cruelty free signs on products, and we don’t wear fur. Of course. Veganism sounds great, it really does. But it’s sooooo DIFFICULT in real life….
