    If you don't have vegan store-bought parmesean cheese to add to the ricotta pumpkin mixture, you can make your own parmesean: just pulse together raw cashews, nutritional yeast, and garlic salt in a blender and voila!!

    The meal turned out so well I'm still in disbelief along with my family. As a lifetime carnivore who loves cheese, I was skeptical about a meal without either ingredients included. I have been trying Paleo these last couple of years and have enjoyed the journey. Now I'm considering becoming a Paleo Vegan, which is so scary to consider giving up meat, but this recipe has converted me and convinced me that I'll be okay πŸ˜†. This meal was so good. Love this recipe. I never knew vegan meals could be so fun. Thanks so much for sharing this 😊 ❀ πŸ˜€ ☺

    Okay so I am recently exploring vegan recipes and have been loving your recipes. I have made your Red Lentil curry (chef’s kiss good!!), your mushroom stroganoff (2nd chef’s kiss) and now I have spun off on this recipe to great results. First off your vegan ricotta is stupendously good, I had some on toast with sliced tomato for lunch today and it was awesome. So I took your filling recipe and riffed off it by subbing in roasted butternut squash, a splash of truffle oil and I made my own pasta and made giant ravioli. I used your Mushroom Stroganoff as the sauce. If was amazing and my husband had seconds before I told him it was vegan. He was amazed and very complimentary! Thanks for the continuing inspiration and amazing recipes. You have a palate that is very similar to mine, lots of garlic, balanced spices and well seasoned. Glad I found your channel!!!!

    If you only have full fat coconut milk, Lighten the coconut flavor by mixing 1 can full fat coconut milk to 2 parts water as she suggested in the written recipe.

    Nisha I came here just to tell you I recently bought your cookbook. I HOARD vegan cookbooks and yours has to be my absolute FAVORITE. You deserve way more subscribers. What I absolutely love about your cookbook is the variety and depth of flavor. I was getting really sick of vegan mac and cheese. I am like you (travelled a lot) and LOVE a lot of flavor and have a diverse taste, the more garlic and onion the better. And I LOVE that you have Asian, Indian, Hispanic, Italian even Jamaican inspired food. The lentil shephards pie is better than regular shephards pie! You should really open a restaurant one day. I always thought a around the world type of restaurant would be a really cool concept. ANYWAYS, I wish you all the best :) :)

    Hello, thank you for uploading this recipe. My appetite has been very poor for a while now but I am starting to get cravings again and, as my stomach still feels tender, I'm looking for meat free and vegan dishes.
    I hope you won't mind me writing here about my situation and experiences but I really feel I must devote time to reaching out to people at present, anyone who will listen to let them know about what is going on for me.
    I was a studious child but my academic ambitions were thwarted when I began to contend with anxiety and depression at the age of 13 and was neglected by family and teachers. My conditions caused me to become very lost and withdrawn throughout my teenage years and into my twenties but change came at the age of 28 when the yoga I had learned at classes began to work and I became more focussed and energetic. For 17 years, I enjoyed many adventures with yoga and felt able to contend and overcome my conditions. I met some truly lovely people and was able to connect spiritually with them whereas previously I had felt not able to do so.
    My latest adventure started when I moved to live with an elderly friend 4 years ago now. He had Parkinson's disease and we helped each other through life. I cared for his cat, went shopping, cleaned and cooked (it was there that I really started to cook) but, most of all, I was there for him, I gave him my presence. He gave me a positive energy with which I could continue my practise and study of yoga.
    Disaster struck almost a year ago now when my friend (Tom) sadly passed away. I have really struggled during these last 12 months with anxiety and depression returning to haunt me. I have often wondered if life had stopped giving me what and who I needed to continue my work with yoga, a science which is so essential to me. It's now coming up to 4 weeks since I took an overdose of opioid painkillers, feeling that there was little for me to live for.
    Obviously, I am still here, still in with a shout and please forgive mefor being so open and honest about my situation but I really feel now that I must share this with people. It also explains why my stomach remains so senstive.
    I would be most grateful to you and anyone else reading this comment, if you have empathy for my situation, if you would consider sparing me a thought with the hope that I will find who and what I need so that I can start a new chapter in my life and continue my work with yoga to overcome my vulnerability and sensitivity. Thank you so much. You do not give your name. I'm Michael.

    Made this for my non vegan parents and we all loved it!
    I had bowtie pasta, put a layer of bechamel down, pasta, then piped the ricotta over and spreaded it, added parmesan, then another layer of pasta, bechamel, and parmesan (best to cover the tray or the parmesan on top may not melt).

    Woohoo❣️ this evening I made this dish as a test run for Thanksgiving with a friend of mine who is a new vegan. We are both thrilled to death with this wonderful recipe. It looks elegant and tastes amazing. The only thing I think I will change is I will put the fresh sage and use my immersion blender to blend it all in together. My families remarks were that running into small pieces of fresh sage was a little much for them. It was great for me. My one granddaughter who is an adult is a cheese lover so of course she sprinkled Parmesan cheese on hers. She thinks that she would like it better if it had real ricotta. The rest of us swooned. So success and thank you for all the beautiful work you do.
