Végé Pâté (or Vegetable Spread)

Vege Pate or Vegetable Spread This is another delight that I remember making with my mom as a kid and continued to make through college, university and in my travels. With time, I have improved, perfected and shared this amazing recipe with many friends along the way. Today, I am sharing with you the gluten-free version that I created over time.

 

This végé pâté, also known as vegetable spread, has the texture of a meat pate but is entirely made of vegetables, seeds and grains. The nutritional yeast, liquid aminos and fresh herb give it a delicious savoury taste. It is filled with vitamins and nutrients. I love to eat it in sandwiches, serve it to accompany a cheese tray or I sometimes eat it as is!
