Directions
Line a 9 1/2″ torte pan with parchment paper. Have a big enough piece so it overlaps on top of the pan so it is easily removed from the pan. This will also eliminate any leakage.
Now you will layer all the grilled veggies.
1. Layer approximately 16 pieces of eggplant.
2. Sprinkle 1/8 cup of nutritional yeast all over the eggplant.
3. Layer in the strips of zucchini.
4. Evenly place all of the roasted garlic from the 3 heads of garlic on top of the zucchini.
5. Add the other 1/8 cup of nutritional yeast all over the top of that layer.
6. Cut the grilled mushrooms in strips and evenly layer them on.
7. Top this with 1/8 cup chopped raw walnuts
8. Spread out the caramelized onion on top along with all the oil.
9. Cut 6-8 colored mini peppers in strips and place them like the spokes of a wheel all around the top of the onions.
10. Cut the asparagus into 4″ pieces including the pretty tip in the measurement.
Place the asparagus on top of the peppers like spokes, also. Put the remainder in your salad.
In a pre-heated 350 degree oven bake the torte 40 minutes or until heated through.
When done sprinkle the top lightly with ground walnuts.
