Steps:
- Heat olive oil in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Add lentils, sofrito, garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper; cook for 4 minutes.
- Reduce heat to medium-low and stir in potatoes, tomato sauce, and olives. Simmer until mixture is warmed through, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool.
- Fill a deep skillet or frying pan with 2 inches vegetable oil and place over medium heat while you assemble the empanadas.
- Set empanada discs on a clean work surface. Add 1/4 cup of lentil-potato mixture to the center of one half of an empanada disc in a half moon shape (so it follows the curve of the wrapper). Wet your fingers in a bowl of water and run them around the entire edge of the wrapper to moisten. Fold the wrapper in half to cover the filling and pinch the edges of the dough together to seal, then use a fork to crimp the edges to secure the wrapper further. Repeat with the remaining discs and filling.
- Once oil has reached 350 degrees F (175 degrees C), add empanadas in a single layer; do not overlap. You will need to cook in batches.
- Fry until empanadas are golden brown and crispy, flipping once or twice so they brown evenly while frying, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Repeat to cook remaining empanadas.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 400°F Spread 1 teaspoon of the oil on a baking sheet.
- Divide the dough into 6 equal portions. Roll each into an 8in round on a lightly floured surface. On 1 side of each round, spread some of the beans, then top with 1 1/2 tbs of salsa and 2 tbs of cheese.
- Fold each of the rounds in half, covering the filling, and sealing the dough on the curved edge with your thumb. Lightly brush the tops of the empanadas with the remaining oil. Transfer to the already greased baking sheet.
- Bake 12-15 minutes until golden.
- Serve with a dollop of sour cream and sliced avocado if desired.

Steps:
- In a large pot, over medium heat, melt the vegetable shortening. Add the onions, shallots, and garlic and cook until they are soft but not browned.
- Lower the heat and add the tomato sauce, tomato paste, chopped mixed green and red peppers, parsley, wine, stock, and mushrooms.
- Bring a large pot of water to the boil. Add the carrots, zucchini, squash, and broccoli and cook until the vegetables are al dente. Add the mixed vegetables and spinach and heat through. Drain the vegetables and put them into an ice bath. When cool, drain well.
- Put the vegetables back into the pot along with the creamed corn. Mix in the red pepper flakes, paprika, oregano, Cajun seasoning, and salt and pepper, to taste. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
- Place 1/4 cup vegetable mixture on the middle of each empanada dough disk. Avoid reaching the edges with the filling because oiliness will prevent good sealing. Slightly wet the edges, fold in half, and stick edges together. The shape should resemble a half-moon. Seal by pinching the edge between your thumb and index finger to make a curl about 5 or 6 times. Other sealing procedures like pinching without curling or using a fork to seal will not prevent the juices from leaking.
- Place the finished empanadas on the cookie sheet and brush them with the egg yolk. Cook until they are golden brown, about 25 to 30 minutes.
VEGAN PICADILLO
Picadillo is typically made with ground beef, but plant-based meat is makes a fantastic substitute here without sacrificing one ounce of flavor! The onions, bell pepper and garlic come together with the tomato sauce to form a rich and comforting sauce that gets studded with tangy, briny olives.

Steps:
- Heat a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the oil, onion and bell pepper. Season with 1 teaspoon salt and a few cracks of black pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables soften, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the garlic, cumin and oregano and stir until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the plant-based meat and cook until no longer pink, 5 to 6 minutes.
- Stir in the tomato paste. Add the vino seco and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet with a wooden spoon. Stir in 1 cup water, the tomato sauce and bay leaf. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until the tomato sauce thickens and turns a deep red color, 10 to 15 minutes.
- Stir in the olives and lime juice. Discard the bay leaf. Serve the picadillo with the rice.
