Wyona Hertwig was a wonderful person, baker, cook and developer of fine recipes, like this one.

ROLL out Savory Pastry (see next line)

LINE any pie or Quiche Pan with pastry (Recipe for vegan Barley-Rice Pastry here) or alternate recipe of your choice (example, a gluten-free pastry).

FILLING:

2 T. vegan Chicken-style Seasoning (if you are reading this recipe in advance of making it, you will save money by making a jar of your own chicken-type seasoning mix-- you will know what's in it and you can adjust the seasonings to suit your preferences and needs)

1 T. Mrs. Dash Original or Spike Seasoning

PLACE small pieces broccoli florets and thinly-sliced mushrooms
 and 1 chopped Red Bell Pepper,
1 chopped Onion onto savory pie crust.

MAKE cashew sauce: 

ADD into blender carafe and BLEND until smooth:

2 C.     Water
1/4 C.  Cashews
2 T.      Starch
1/2 tsp. Salt

COOK on Medium, stirring constantly, until thickened.
COVER and turn to LOW.  Let simmer for 5-10 minutes.

SEASON as desired.  
  • You may wish to add 2 teaspoons to 1 tablespoon of soy sauce to provide color (reduce salt to 1/4 tsp.)
  • Add 1 tablespoon nutritional yeast (not brewer's yeast) for depth of flavor.  
  • Add chicken-like seasoning to taste 
  • If you want that golden color and don"t have it in any of your other additions, add a small amount of Turmeric to your sauce instead of adding soy sauce
POUR cashew sauce over broccoli and mushroom mix

BAKE at 400 degrees F. about 25 minutes on the middle rack in the oven

Health Note: According to Health Canada and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), consuming at least 3 grams of barley beta-glucan daily can help lower blood cholesterol levels, which is a risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. Whole-grain barley, a fiber-rich grain, also helps regulate blood sugar by reducing the glucose response after meals. Regular consumption of barley-based breakfast cereals over several weeks to months can improve both cholesterol levels and blood sugar regulation. However, since barley contains gluten, it is not suitable for people with gluten-related disorders such as celiac disease, non-celiac gluten sensitivity, or wheat allergies.
