Directions

GETTING READY
1. In a small bowl or jar, put the nut or seed butter and lemon juice and whisk until they get very thick.
2. Then add enough water to thin it out to a salad dressing consistency. (This is the same base used for tahini salad dressing, so if you want to see the technique, check out that video).
3. Squeeze the juice from the pulp of the grated ginger.
4. Stir in enough salt or ume plum vinegar to bring the lemon and ginger flavors together.
5. Preheat your oven to 300 degree Fahrenheit or 180 degree Celsius.

MAKING
6. Line a spring form pan with parchment paper.
7. Press the grated beet into the bottom then drizzle with some dressing.
8. Next, layer the sweet potato and drizzle with dressing.
9. Finally repeat with the parsnip.
10. Make sure that the top layer of the vegetables get a good coating of dressing so that they don't dry out in the oven (if they dry out, they won't cook properly).
11. You can cover the dish with a lid if you want; so that the veggies get steamed slightly as they cook and don't need as much dressing.
12. Now put it in the preheated oven for 40 minutes.

SERVING
13. Take it out and serve hot.

TIPS
I also topped it off with a pumpkin seed-kelp mixture from Christy Morgan's Blissful Bites cookbook. I threw in a bit of nutritional yeast this time too, and it was fantastic. I hope you enjoy this lemon ginger roasted vegetable pie, the latest of my healthy vegan recipes.
