Directions
Mushroom Lentil Barley Casserole, A good vegan dish to add to a festive meal Great with red cabbage, broccoli and roasted root vegetables And meat eaters like it too! This is a pretty versatile dish, read forgiving if I don’t have barley to hand rice works Sometimes I have added in odds and sods of leftover veg like red peppers/courgettes/pumpkin and then used fewer (and/or just plain button)mushrooms I have also zinged it up with smoked paprika and tabasco As I said it goes well in a mixed holiday meal but sometime I just serve this with steamed savoy cabbage or kale and mashed potatoes , A good vegan dish to add to a festive meal Great with red cabbage, broccoli and roasted root vegetables And meat eaters like it too!
