Prep: 10 mins | Cook: 15 mins | Total: 25 mins | Quantity: 2 servings
Ingredients
1 cup (100g) baby carrots
1 red onion
2-3 cloves garlic
drizzle of olive oil
40g (a small bunch) asparagus
couple of handfuls of broccoli florets
1 cup (60g) button mushrooms (I’ve used button chestnut mushrooms but you could just dice larger mushrooms too)
1/2 red pepper – stalk and seeds removed then roughly sliced or diced
1/4 cup (60ml) veg stock
salt and pepper
60g New Roots Vegan Goat’s Cheese with Thyme and Lavender
4 slices thickly cut crusty bread
Optional
camelina seeds or seed of choice
Instructions
Wash and remove any tough stalk from the baby carrots and cut in half if very thick. Put into a saucepan with boiling water and cook for 5 minutes until softened slightly. Drain and set aside
Peel the onion and finely dice. Peel the garlic and crush then put into a large saute pan with the diced onion and a drizzle of olive oil
Gently saute the onion and garlic, stirring frequently, for 1 minute then add the par-cooked carrots, the asparagus, broccoli, mushrooms, pepper and veg stock
Cover the pan with a lid and gently bubble over a medium heat for a further 5 minutes
Remove the lid, turn the heat up and bubble rapidly for just a minute to evaporate any excess liquid. Add a pinch each of salt and pepper and stir
Turn the heat off and put the lid back on
Toast your slices of bread, generously spread each piece with the goats cheese then top with the sauteed veggies
Optional: sprinkle with seeds - I love camelina seeds, they're nutty, crunchy and full of flavour but toasted sesame seeds or poppy seeds would be just as good!
Serve immediately and enjoy!
