Vegan Tetrazzini Revisited
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 9 ก.พ. 2025
- I've been working on a lazier version of my Vegan Tetrazzini. I should start calling this channel "Lazy Daily Recipes." I baked up another vegan tetrazzini last year, I called it Creamy Soy Curls Tetrazzini. Remember? Well, anyhoo.
Here's the recipe as it stands today. I'll probably change again before it goes into my next cookbook.
Vegan Tetrazzini Revisited
SEASONED BREAD CRUMBS TOPPING
4 slices whole wheat bread, torn into pieces
2 teaspoon dried parsley
1 teaspoon onion granules
2 teaspoons nutritional yeast
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
FILLING
1-pound package spaghetti, cooked as directed
2 1/2 cups frozen green peas
2 handfuls dehydrated soy curls, rehydrated then shredded
SAUCE
1-pound bag frozen cauliflower
2 cups water
2 teaspoons Better Than Bouillon No-Chicken Base
1/3 cup walnuts
1/2 teaspoon oregano
½ teaspoon thyme
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
3-5 drops liquid smoke
Preheat oven to 400ºF degrees.
Process bread, dried parsley, onion granules, nutritional yeast, salt and pepper in food processor until you have medium bread crumbs. Set aside.
Start a large pot of boiling water to cook pasta as directed on package. Once water begins to boil, add frozen green peas with pasta and cook together until pasta is tender to the bite.
In a medium-size bowl, cover dehydrated soy curls in warm water and allow to sit for 10 minutes. Drain rehydrated soy curls. Shred curls in a drink blender set on the lowest speed setting for 5 seconds. Curls should look like shredded meat. Transfer to bowl. Set aside.
In a medium saucepan, combine cauliflower, 2-cups water, no-chicken broth base, walnuts, oregano, thyme, pepper and liquid smoke. Bring to a simmer and cook for 5-8 minutes until cauliflower is tender. Carefully transfer cauliflower mix to a heavy-duty blender and blend into a smooth sauce. Set aside.
The pasta should be tender by now. Drain off water. Keep pasta mix in large pot. Stir in shredded soy curls. Pour creamy cauliflower sauce over pasta and fold in until pasta is well coated. Transfer to 13-inch by 9-inch casserole dish. Top with seasoned bread crumbs.
Bake casserole for 10-15 minutes, or until top is lightly golden brown. Allow to cool 5 minutes before serving.
Feeds 8 hungry folks.

don't usually like videos this long, but for some reason couldn't stop watching, you have a great personality!
OH THANK YOU! I appreciate your kindness :D
OMG Jill, you crazy chickenheaded loon, I love you more than you'll ever know!! Watching this with hubby snoring next to me. You have no idea how close I came to busting out laughing and waking up the whole neighbourhood, ha! They (whoever they is) need to give you your own show!! Seriously! Co-starring all the other hilarious McKeevers!! If you're ever in the Alvin area, let me know, cos we gotta get together! I got diagnosed with lipolymphedema this week, and hubby and I came to the conclusion that me and veganism need to take our flirtatious on-again, off-again relationship to the lifetime commitment level. When I realised that the sialic acid saturating animal products is causing and contributing to all this pain, away it all went. I feel so much better!! Thank GOD hubby is health oriented and loves me so much! My loving family has been huge in their support! Love you, Jillycakes, honey. You make a major, necessary lifestyle change funny, warm, homey, comforting, inviting, and familiar. Not at all scary or weird. I am addicted to your videos!! :) You are a gem. God bless you all.
Katherine Urbahn-Hall I’m also watching with a snoring hubby 😂😂😂
What an adorable son! He loves momma's cooking. Yes he does.
Jill , this was INCREDIBLE ! Soooooooo Good ! This will Definitely be on my rotation of meals . My grown kids are going to LOOOOOVE it ! Thank you 🥰🌷🥰
I am so glad I found this video! I love tetrazzini and haven't had it in years since going WFPB. Can't wait to try the recipe!!
Your son is hilarious. I like his "side eye" when asked if it was the best he has ever had. I am going to get me some of those soy curls! :)
Hello! Hilly in the UK here. I wanted to make this last night, but only had a ready made no oil vegan caesar dressing in the fridge, so I thought 'why not?!' I loosened it with some pasta water and added the herbs and smoked paprika (I don't have any liquid smoke) and did everything else the same and it was bloomin' delish!! Thanks Jill.
I was seriously dancing and head bobbing with you hahaa. You are too great!
YES! A kindred spirit! 🙌 WOOT WOOT 🙌
Will be making this one this weekend. Just got some of them there Butler soy curls in the mail, on your recommendation! Can't wait to cook tomorrow. And not only are your recipes awesome, especially for a working mom like me, but I LOVE the bunny ears, chicken hat, dancing and all around silliness. Thank you for being you. You bring a smile to my face almost every day, and the food never disappoints. What a lucky family you have.
+Stormwitch YOU'RE SO SWEET! I'd hug you right now if I could. You let me know how your dinner turns out, how the kids like it too. And thank you for mentioning that you love the bunny ears and silliness. I've been getting feedback to ditch the ears because they distract from the "seriousness of the message" to live plant-based. I say there's plenty of TH-cam channels being serious, I'm going to have fun with my audience.
You keep being you, Jill. That's where your success is. Food should be a joy and a celebration. You have demonstrated through your words, which are intelligent and honest, that you know what you're talking about. I, personally love your videos because you seem to be comfortable with who you are, and you're not afraid to be you. You keep ya some bunny ears. Just my opinion.........And the singing, I love the singing :) Don't let anyone dull your sparkle.
I can't wait to the cook this. Your dancing made me laugh out loud. Adorable. Keep the recipes coming.
ive binged on your videos for like 2 days straight ...n wrote a lot of recipes down so i got lots of cooking to do 😊 got my mum hooked on you too hee hee your so lovely n cheer me right up ...💚
Omg....I love you so much! You and your kids make me laugh so hard! Thanks for all you do!
Oh...this looks so good. Scheduled for tomorrow night. We just got our big 12 pound bag of soy curls yesterday and I have to say that I laughed and laughed when I opened it. Loving them soy curls especially in your recipes! Yummmers!!!!!
I love your tip about tying up a bag of frozen vegetables! I can't believe I never thought of that...haha
JILL!!! Made this tonight! We loved it. I halved the peas ( I have a hard relationship with peas. Ha) and added no oil fried mushrooms ( had some I needed to use up.) The only thing we would do different and it's a preference thing is use regular pasta and panko crumbs on top. I'm not a lover of the flavor of whole wheat. My husband gave it a strong 8/10 . The cauliflower sauce was delicious! Thanks so much!
Side note, I got my 12 lb. bag of soy curls in today!,,,😁
+Kathy Zavoina 🙌WOOT WOOT🙌 thank you so much for coming back to tell me you had a successful dinner! That makes me so happy! I have more so I curl recipes coming. I plan to do some cooking and filming tomorrow so I can pump out some videos for next week. Stay tuned!
Excellent recipe. So tasty. Thank you so much for not only sharing but putting this on you-tube making it easier for cooking challenged folks like myself.
+David Rafeedie YOU'RE WELCOME!
this was delicious. next time i'm putting a lot more soy curls. thanks to you i find a way to add them soy curls to any recipe. love em. thanks for your recipes. keep em coming!
Looks delicious, and you dancing with the chicken hat on totally made me laugh :)
Yum! Your kitchen is joyful! Your kids are great fun like their Ma!
This was a total hit with the 17 year old and my husband.....and me! So so good!!!
Thanx for the recipe - your Videos are fun to watch! I followed your directions and of course spilled everything on the counter 😅 now i m waiting impatiently....it already looks delicious. *nomnomnom* Greetings from germany
I love the things that you do! Today is the day of my life that I start cooking ;)
+EllieSweettt YOU CAN DO IT! Home cooking can be fun and frustrating, but always a healthier choice. If you have any questions, holler.
+Simple Daily Recipes The whole family loved it!
I love your enthusiasm and your recipes.
I made this last night. My sauce was too thick but I used it as is...mistake. It soaked into every bit of that spaghetti. But...I just made more and poured it on top. 😋 I didn't have soy curls, so I used different veggies and added garlic. Mmmmm
Thanks so much for all the work you put into these videos!
+Diane Mendoza Have you made this dish anymore since the first time? Have you had a chance to work out the consistency of the sauce?
I have made it a couple times. I'm still working on consistency...however, it is improving! LOL
I'm so glad you have to spill stuff to make the recipe taste good because I spill all the time. I'm going to tell my kids about this so when they say they don't like the food I can say imagine what it would taste like if I didn't spill something today...hahahaha 😂
+CountessMommy :D
You are so funny!! Love your videos and this dish I'm for sure going to try, thanks Jill!
Sounds so delicious . I have to try. Thanks for the inspiration and greetings from Germany.
Yum! I'm going to try and make it this week.
i love this recipe - it is so delicious! Cooking it today with potatoes, cauliflower and Brokkoli. 😀
+poisonDeluxe80 I am just now finding your comment here. I'm sorry I didn't respond sooner. Do you make use the pasta with the potatoes or leave it out?
potatoes instead of pasta :)
I made this following your recipe with sunflower seeds. It is delish! My SO didn't even know it was vegan 😍
This looks incredible! Gonna try! BUT...Thank you so much for the giggles! I needed them!
You guys are so funny! Can't wait to get my hands on some soy curls to make this :D
after I come back from vacation in a few weeks I'm going to place a big order of the soy curls bec I tried one package and we loved them! This recipe looks fantastic! I will probably use penne pasta for mine. I cant wait!
xo Michele
ps Maggie's haircut is adorable!!
+Michele Coccaro Where are going on vacation? If it's somewhere like Hawaii, take me with you!
Simple Daily Recipes ha-ha sorry to disappoint, I can only dream of Hawaii! Florida which I am happy about regardless :)
+Michele Coccaro Florida's is beautiful too, so I hear. I haven't been there either. How big is your suitcase?
Thumbs up X5 for your genius tip!!! Oh and X10 for your dance, Woot Woot!!!
I love your channel Jill! I don't have the soy curls, so I am going to try it with the field roast Italian sausage! My soy curls are in the mail!
+Burwell Lorraine THANK YOU!!! Oh that sounds like a yummy substitution. Let us know how it turns out.
+Simple Daily Recipes omg it turned out totally awesome! but got me some soy curls! I miss chicken rice soup so used the soy curls in the soup and it was perfect! Thanks Jill !!
+Burwell Lorraine AWESOME! I'm so glad you found a way to enjoy an old favorite recipe. I love soy curls for that alone. We don't eat soy curls every week, but I like having them on hand when I want to recreate an comfort meal from long ago. :D
Hi Jill, I've only been following you for about 6-8 weeks. I see you have a iPot (WOOT WOOT ) cookbook but do you have a cookbook for the recipes like this Tetrazzini? Love your energy, wonderful family and great dance moves.😁
I'm actually working on my next cookbook now. It will be a combination of iPot and conventionally cooked recipes. I hope to have it up on Amazon by September of this year. :D
Thank you for starting off the day with a good chuckle!
Love you and your family, going to make the tetrazzini this weekend!
Made this yesterday, love it! Thanks for the recipe!
+Dayna You're welcome! Thank you for coming back to tell me. I always love a success story. ;D
I just love you and your family... You are so much fun and I was just laughing at the end.... gonna def try this one!
Thoroughly enjoyed this - had to subscribe! You and your family are so much fun and what a great dish! Definitely going to make this. Thank you!
Thanks Cally!
Great video
I can’t wait to try this!
Really good
Looks great! And you really are so entertaining!! Thanks!!
+hallbe THANK YOU! Have you had a chance to make this yet?
This looks awesome!!
Very cool!! 🙂🙂🙂
That looks so delish. 😋👏🏻
You and yorn are so darn crazy cute and yet your recipes turn out soooo great. Itinit just crazy how that happens. Anyway I love yal 💕👌🏽
I must make this!
Yes, you must!
Best video EVER!!! Love the chicken hat!!!
Thank you, Linda!
What is the music you were dancing to? Love it!
I'm gonna use that bread crumb recipe for baked mac and cheese!
+Mysasser1 Let me know how you like it!
Simple Daily Recipes Between the kids wolfing it down and the seasonings in know it's going to be awesome!!!
Im watching your pot pie vid right now. Gearing up for the holidays!
I went to Butler Foods and ordered a sample pack. Learned soy curls are not available in Pennsylvania. I have your cookbook and enjoy your videos. I'm transitioning to a whole foods plant based diet and I need all the help I can get. Thank you.
Good morning Barbara, anytime you have questions about the plant-based lifestyle or cooking, holler for me. I can be reached through the message system here on TH-cam, Facebook, and email, Jill@SimpleDailyRecipes.com
I ordered Butler Foods Soy curls through Amazon...I wonder if you could do that?
Made this for dinner tonight and it tasted really good, but it got dried out in the oven 😭. Will try again soon and not put it in the oven at all to keep it creamy. Thanks for the recipe!
+Lyndsey Gunal OH NO! That's a bummer. Lots of sauce next time and you could try shortening the baking time down to just long enough to get the bread crumbs lightly golden.
+Simple Daily Recipes SO I whipped up another batch of sauce with cashews and the same seasonings, then dumped the whole dish into the pot I boiled the pasta in...crumbs and all...poured over the second batch of sauce, gave it a stir and WHA-LA!!!! It's like I never baked it 😋
+Lyndsey Gunal BOOYAH! That's the way to own it! I wish I was there to eat dinner with you.
Jill .... PLEASE tell me the name of that song. It's used ALL OVER and I MUST find it. Thanks :-)
just made this tonight. it was really good! my meat eating fiancé even liked it and he never seems to care for anything main course i make without meat.
OH nice! That always feels good to find a recipe that satisfies an omnivore, especially an omni you love ;D
Love the Army guy on the window sill. I'm by myself and while I like the soy curls, I can't eat a ton at a time. Do you think I should freeze them? Will they thaw out enough in a bowl of warm water?
And by the way, I got my soy curls from a company called Country Life Natural Foods. I do not remember ordering a THREE pound bag but apparently that is indeed what I ordered. But now of course I'm like, I wonder if the Butler foods Soy Curls are better than the Country Life Soy Curls. It will be a very long time before I know.
Doing this tomorrow!
I love your food processor. what kind is it.
+SuperXrunner Here's my Amazon affiliate link to get to it: simpledailyrecipes.com/Breville-All-In-One-Station
I am ordering some curls so I can make this soon! :)
I love your Energy.
oh and your recipes too!
+No Future in Fronting. THANK YOU!
you make me smile ❤
I just found my Thanksgiving potluck dish for work!
thank you where do you buy soy curls
This I have to try... reminds me so much of the tuna noodle casserole I used to like so much. I recently subscribed to your channel and I do not know all the recipes you have... so I am asking if you have a tuna-ish noodle casserole recipe posted??? and if not, do you have some ideas of how this recipe can be adjusted to mock a tuna noodle flavour ??? I am "raw" a lot but I enjoy good cooked veGan meals... I like your recipes!!! thankhz sooo much for sharing n keep dancing... Wholeness n Love ((-;
+Na'im Asra El Welcome! I'm so glad you found me. At this time, I do not have a tuna-ish casserole. However, I do not a can of vegan toona in my pantry. Making a casserole would be a good way to try it out. It's been SO long since I enjoyed tuna casserole, I'll have to do some recipe digging and comparison to recreate a vegan version. Be patient with me, I may be a few weeks coming around to shooting the video for it.
How long have you been plant-based? I like getting to know everyone who watches my channel.
It started Mar 2013... have been vegetarian, raw, mostly raw, veGan, mostly processed veGan, tried raw again recently... but am back to mostly raw veGan, cause I so love to have cooked meals if I want them... I like having options lol Your channelife have tons of meal options and I like the silliness of your videos...that is a good thing...çause I amean the same way at heart... u gotta have fun...thankhz again for all your time and efforts... Wholeness not Love ((-:
That looks good! Is this in your No. 1 Soy Curls cookbook?🌻🌵
Yummy! I think my husband is ready for me to hurry up and make all of your recipes, because all I keep saying is "oh yeah I'm making that!" on every video!! Hopefully my picky eaters will chow down on this too. I do have a question. My middle little is pretty picky and I find myself trying to figure out dinner for him. What are your suggestions? What does Maggie eat when she doesn't like what's for dinner?
+Suds Life When I plan to make something I know Maggie won't like, I tell her to fend for herself. She knows how to open a can of black beans and heat them up. Sometimes, she'll eat them straight up. Other times, she'll toast up some tortillas to make soft black bean tacos. She's happy to make her own meal. She already makes her lunch, making dinner is no biggy for her. If I make something I want her to try, because it has ingredients she already likes, then I ask her to eat with us. If she's not a fan, she has learned to eat all the parts she likes. She may not eat as much as the rest of us, so she'll make up for it by filling up on fruit. Oh yeah, I make a fruit bowl for back up too.
It looks so scrumptious, I think I will have to wait for my husband not to be home though. I think he will poopoo it. I'm drooling just thinking about it.
Can you use something else in place of the Better Than Bouillon...maybe liquid veggie broth?
+Shellie Oh go for it! Use your favorite veggie broth, that way you'll like it even more. ;D
+Simple Daily Recipes Thanks, Jill. Can't wait to try this. :)
I'm making this tonight!
+Small Town Vegan How did the tetrazzini turn out?
Great I made it again the other night!
Awesome recipe! Where do you get the dehydrated soy curls from?
+Stéphanie Barret Go directly to ButlerFoods.com for the soy curls. That's the best price on the interweb.
Are the soy curls organic? Or non GMO? Thanks. I love your channel. You crack me up. My kind of dorky. LOL.
I found the info on their site. Thanks anyway. I ordered an Instant Pot. Arriving today. I can't wait. I am off for two weeks (teacher). I am going to cook up a storm. Grin.
Looks yummy! I would make it tonight if only I had cauliflower! Another night!
Hi, Jill, question about the food processor. Never seen one like that.... want one. Could you tell me the brand?
That's the Breville BSB530XL the All In One Processing Station. Very well designed. Love how it all sits on the counter. Everyone in the family can and does use it.
If and when you decide to buy it, please consider using my affiliate link to help support my channel: simpledailyrecipes.com/Breville-All-In-One-Station
Thank you so much. I will definitely use your link. Your videos are a
joyful bright spot in my day...we have similar humor... Just silly fun.
Love it. Thank you, Sincerely, Connie
Have you ever tried Chicken(less) Salad sandwiches with the shredded soy curls?
Hey Jill. My vitamix has the taller container. It doesnt shred soycurls CD very well. The bottom becomes mush too fast. Any suggestions?
🤔 Try processing smaller amounts or get to chopping 😆
@@JillMcKeever thanks. I may need to order a different container. What size is yours?
where do you buy soy curls?
+YoungGrassoftheSea Best deal is directly from the maker, ButlerFoods.com
Soy curls? I never heard of such a thing. Where do you find them?
Go to ButlerFoods.com. Tell them Jill McKeever sent you 😎
I have to tell you whenever you talk about salt and giving people the option of adding more salt, YOU are ME at the beginning of EVERY meal with my family. I'm constantly saying, "Now if y'all feel like you wanna add more salt you can. It will not hurt my feelings cause I didn't add much." I'm tellin ya! It's a thing! And they make fun of me! But I don't care because it's healthier. Chef AJ says no salt, but I ain't there yet.
Where did you get that herbivore tee? I want one just like it.
Herbivore Clothing Co is the place you need to shop online.
Herbivore Clothing Co is the place you need to shop online.
+Simple Daily Recipes Thanks!
This looked good until the soy curls.. I cant do any soy.i start itching when I eat soy..thats one of the reasons we just started plant eating..without soy..almost all processed packaged food has soy.. so can I just leave out the soy curls?
I added onions and mushrooms and some red bell pepper I put the soy curls in too but think it would be good without them too.
This looks great. However, I need a substitute for the soy curls as they are $43.50 + $10 shipping for 8 oz bag on Amazon.ca!! I'm thinking maybe just tofu?
That's crazy! Sauté up some mushrooms and onions instead that will be closer to a traditional tetrazzini.
+Simple Daily Recipes ikr! I had to do a triple take on that price... Mushrooms and onions: will do. Gonna make it for dinner tomorrow. Thanks. :)
Can you freeze the sauce?
I've never tried to freeze it. You'll have to test freezing a portion of it and let me know. :D
This was a big hit with my adult vegan son, his vegan girlfriend, my non-vegan husband and me (not totally vegan but moving in at direction). Thanks so much for all your recipes!
Yeah I'm on my way to your house for dinner!!! :oD
Jill, what brand is your food processor? It looks like it works so well! Mine's a pain.
Here's my Amazon link to learn more about it: simpledailyrecipes.com/Breville-All-In-One-Station
soy curls are a highly processed food, I wouldn't call them a 'whole food' but then I wouldn't call flour a whole food either so what do I know!
Soy Curls™ are not labeled a whole food, but they are made from whole soybeans and nothing else. The soybeans are soaked in pure spring water (no chlorine or fluorine) and then stirred while cooking which elongates the protein strands. It is similar to what happens when we knead dough in making bread except, of course, Soy Curls™ do not contain gluten. This is what develops the texture so is referred to as texturing. There is nothing added and nothing removed from the soybeans. They are very pure. Then they are dried and packed into bags.
We don't have soy curls in Canada. :(
Big Rue looks like you can order online? www.butlerfoods.com/soycurls.html
Thank you very much!
Wow, what genius. :-)
you should really use fresh cracked black pepper if you have men in your household, there is an indetectible mold that can grow on ground pepper and has been shown to greatly increase mens risk of prostate cancer
you are funny, where can i get soy curls
bahahah i love you guys :)
hahahaaa
the BEST EVER!
I wish you were my mother....
LOL! Thank you! I hope you're a subscriber to my channel. :D
Jill McKeever, Simple Daily Recipes Yes, I'm...Greetings from Croatia! 😌
