Roasted Root Vegetable Green Thai Curry

This is why I'm glad I decided to become a vegan cook - because never on my own would I have roasted some rutabagas, parsnips, and brussels sprouts and put them in a green thai curry sauce. (I'm 99% sure I'd never had rutabaga in my life until this.) It is certainly an unusual combination, but it worked. Ben complains a lot about not liking brussels sprouts, but he continues to eat them if I put them in stuff, so I mostly ignore him.



Also, I saw this stuff at the grocery store.



Yikes! I wondered why I hadn't seen that stuff discussed on my vegan message boards but then I read the ingredients and it contains whey (milk). Why vegetarian companies bother to make a complicated meat substitute and then don't make it accessible to vegans I will never understand. Although I'm not sure I want to eat fake shrimp scampi anyway. What IS it?? Scary, no doubt.
