But something even more amazing than that happened: the dish that nearly everyone went bananas over was a vegan stuffing! Hooray! I just get excited whenever I even hear the word vegan on TV, but to see a bunch of foodies get psyched about vegan food is very cool.
Now, the recipe was originally published on the Bravo website with a typo which which made it appear as though it's not truly vegan. However, it has since been fixed and I'm really looking forward to trying it. So without further rambling, I give you....

- 6 egg and dairy free corn muffins
- 1 yellow squash, diced
- 1 zucchini, diced
- 1 red pepper, diced
- 3 T minced garlic
- 1 T oregano
- 1 T rosemary
- 1 T thyme
- 1 T basil
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1 quart vegetable stock
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- Small dice squash, zucchini, red pepper.
- Toss veggies with olive oil, herbs and salt and pepper.
- Put in 350 degree oven in one layer, and roast for approximately 25 minutes, or until soft.
- Sauté garlic in oil, combine herbs and add to garlic.
- Crumble in the corn muffins.
- Toss and combine with veggies.
- Spread in large casserole dish.
- Pour over stock and bake for 15 minutes.
- Garnish with chopped scallion and serve.

That stuffing sounds awesome. MUST try. SOON.
soo... i really can't stand radhika, but also thought it was totally awesome that the vegan stuffing was loved by all!
How awesome that a vegan recipe was the hit! YAY!
I was so happy to see that the vegan stuffing was one of the runaway hits on that episode! Win one for veganism! :)
madcapcupcakes: Word! ;)
Allularpunk: LOL She's not my fav this season, but I wouldn't say I can't stand her. There are certainly others that squick me more.
Tami: Indeed!
Hannah: Me too. I'm happy to see veganism "normalizing," though I'm not sure it'll ever be "the norm." But things like this give me hope.
Mmmm it sounds lovely - totally unusual using the Corn Muffins.
Jeni Treehugger: I agree. Sounds like a smart shortcut to me.
that is really cool. Love it when vegan dishes get rave reviews, too ;)
Bethany: Agreed!
Those are fresh herbs, right? It wouldn't be 1 tablespoon of dried, correct?
Hi Karen,
I'm assuming so. I haven't made it myself, but if I were making it I'd got with fresh herbs if I had them or reduce the quantity if I were using dry herbs.
Good luck!
