Samosa Casserole

Samosa traditionally involves serving a savory potato mixture inside a pastry alongside various chutneys for dipping. With this autoimmune protocol version, you get a quick and easy baked veggie dish! You can even top it with some homemade chutney if you like. Taro has a wonderfully potato-like flavor and is my favorite sub for the nightshade plant. If you can’t find taro, you can use white-fleshed sweet potatoes or even turnips instead.

I have Ankylosing Spondylitis, and was following a vegan diet in an effort to reduce my pain, which has not responded to medical treatments. Beans, legumes, nuts, nightshades…All the wrong foods! When my nutritionist recommended AIP, I didn’t know what would be left to eat. My family has been enjoying Indian fare the past few days, with samosas, tikka masala, eggplant, tomatoes…all foods I couldn’t share. I am off to make this recipe right now…I’ll join them at the table with a meal they’ll want to share 🙂 Thank you for the inspiration!
Hi Nicole! That is so awesome to hear–I LOVE Indian food and for a while I despaired that it’d never be on the menu again. I’m glad my experiments can be of help to someone else in the same boat!!!
