Chef’s notes

I had the basic idea for what I wanted but needed oven recommendations which I took from HolyCowVegan, and realized how they got their name.. Holy cow, thats a lot of ads! So yes they’re vegan, but they’re good anyway! I was tempted to add farmer’s cheese just for the sake of making it not vegan anymore. I’m glad I stopped myself. I don’t think it needs it, and may make the dish taste like its trying to hard. If you add farmers cheese, or any leafy seasonings such as rosemary or summer savory, do it at the end because the oven temp is too high for it to do anything but muddy the flavor.
