Gourmet Chickpea Casserole

Eating this was like a blast from my past, only better. 

Vegan Month of Food Day 20: Veganize an old family favorite.

You know how sometimes you're just in the mood for a good old fashioned casserole, dripping with cans of creamed soup and mayo? Yeah, me neither.....BUT I do crave comfort food and I do love casseroles and actually I am a mayo freak....so I got to thinking about today's Vegan Month of Food prompt: Veganize an old family favorite. 

It was pretty easy to decide to veganize one of my mom's best casseroles : Gourmet Chicken Casserole. You can find a non-vegan version right HERE  . What I really loved about veganizing this classic (besides ditching the chickens), is the most delicious chicken-like cream soup that I found on the INTERNET of all places! (ha ha) You can peek at that recipe HERE. 

This was completely delish...You can see we almost polished it off. My son loved it too! I always have the habit of adding too much rice to stuff and drying out the lovely sauces I have prepared. I am going to perfect this recipe and next time, more sauce and less rice.
