Liza's Hutspot Recipe

Prepare Carrots and Potatoes

Peel and chop the carrots and gold potatoes into small chunks. Place them in a pot, cover with water, and bring to a boil.

Chop Other Vegetables

While the carrots and potatoes boil, chop the onion, bell pepper, tomatoes, and mushrooms. Break the broccoli into small florets.

Cook Beyond Sausage

In a skillet over medium heat, cook the Beyond sausage links until browned and heated through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from the skillet and slice into bite-sized pieces.

Sauté Vegetables

In the same skillet, add a splash of olive oil. Add the chopped onion and bell pepper, and sauté for 3 minutes. Then add the mushrooms and broccoli, cooking for another 5 minutes until tender. Finally, add the chopped tomato and cook for an additional 2 minutes.

Mash the Vegetables

Once the carrots and potatoes are fork-tender (about 15-20 minutes), drain and return them to the pot. Mash together until smooth, adding salt and pepper to taste.

Make the Pesto

In a food processor, combine sunflower seeds, basil, garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth, adding a little water if necessary for desired consistency.

Combine and Serve

In a large bowl, mix the sautéed vegetables with the sliced Beyond sausage. Serve the vegetable mixture over a bed of mashed carrots and potatoes. Drizzle generously with sunflower pesto before serving.
