Shepherd’s Pie
1 tablespoons vegan butter ( I use earth balance)
1 onion, diced
3 celery stalks, diced
2 cloves minced garlic
1 teaspoon minced fresh rosemary (or dried)
1 pound of crumbled meat-alternative, (Boca, lightlife…) you could also use lentils
1 tablespoon tomato paste
2 tablespoons Vegan Worcestershire sauce
1/2 cup veggie broth
3- 31/2 cups green peas and carrot mix
1 prepared batch of roasted-garlic mashed potatoes
paprika
Nutritional yeast (optional)

Melt butter in a large sauté pan over medium-high heat. Add onion, diced celery stalks, minced garlic and sauté for a minute. Then add carrot and peas mix and cook until vegetables are softened somewhat, about 8-10 minutes. Stir in 1 teaspoon minced fresh rosemary or dried, stir, and then add meat-alternative.

Cook for a couple of minutes Next, stir in tomato paste, Vegan Worcestershire sauce and veggie broth.
When most of the liquid has cooked off, spoon the mixture into a 13×9 casserole dish and top with the prepared roasted-garlic mashed potatoes and spread. Garnish with paprika and nutritional yeast.
Bake in a preheated 375 F oven for approximately 30 minutes, or until the potato topping looks golden brown. Enjoy!

From day one, we’ve made it our mission to give a voice to the billions of animals who suffer behind the closed doors of animal agribusiness and to empower others to choose compassion by leaving animals off their plates. With your help, we’ve gone undercover inside factory farms to expose the truth, we put an end to the egg industry’s misleading advertising scheme, we’ve changed the way corporations do business, we’ve aired pro-vegetarian commercials nationwide reaching millions of viewers, and so much more.

Thank you for allowing us to celebrate this anniversary! We hope you’ll continue standing with us during our next 15 years of advocacy.

Turkeys are drugged and bred to grow so large, so quickly that their legs are often unable to withstand their own weight. Countless birds slowly starve to death within inches of food after they become crippled and are unable to move.

In an undercover investigation, workers at Willmar Poultry Company, the country’s largest turkey hatchery, are shown handling baby turkeys roughly and without care. This is the investigator’s account of what really happens to turkeys once they’re hatched.
