When Mary Margaret Chappell first started out in the plant-based food world as a writer, editor, and recipe developer, she was a bacon-loving former pastry chef who didn’t think she could ever cook without butter. Fourteen years, four cookbooks, dozens of cooking classes, and hundreds of recipes later, her favorite thing in the world is sharing the tips, techniques, and recipes that show just how easy and delicious whole-food, plant-based cooking can be. The former food editor of Vegetarian Times magazine has done away with her dependency on butter and is honing her skills at baking with natural sweeteners. Chappell lives in France, where plant-based eating can often be a challenge, but the fruits, vegetables, grains, and legumes available are simply amazing. Find her on Instagram and Facebook.

Added coriander and cumin+ olives to make it taste more middle eastern. Forfeited raisins bc I did not have any.
This was delicious!! I used a little extra herbs and added 1 tbsp of chopped capers. Couldn’t stop eating the filling…. we will definitely make again!
I need to know nutritional facts of each meme. Goes your recipes show this, thank you so I do not have to look up everything like this recip
Thanks
Does any of these recipes show nutritional facts as I need that. Thanks

I am finding these recipes difficult because they call for ingredients that aren’t easy to keep on hand, for example fresh mint. Who has that on hand? What could be subbed for the fresh mint.
This applies to several of the recipes, not just this one.
thanks,
Judi- they have a group of quick and easy recipes. Try those. I have found many recipes to be easy to whip up together with what I have on hand.
This is the first recipe from this site that has fallen short. I had high hopes as a like Greek/Mediterranean food and love grape leaves, mint, dill. Bland. I added salt and pepper as no where said to add any. That did help. Just not my favorite.
Salt and pepper should always be added to your own taste—it is not required in a recipe for you to add. Salt is needed to enhance flavor.
I’m cooking this right now and was also going to add at least some black pepper… someone above added capers – also a good idea. or olives? I do love lentils but i’m guessing this might turn out a tad bland…
Good
