Vegan cipâte

I learned that our beloved family dish "cipâte" used to be seapie and was made with fish.  It evolved when people changed location and different food was available.  So it became a meal made with game meat, then pork, beef and chicken.  Onion soup powder was added in some point.  Well I decided to try it vegetarian... why not.  I often feel torn between eating meatless and keeping family traditions, maybe vegetarian cipâte is my solution. It doesn't taste or look like meat but the smell and the comfort of eating a meal that cooked all day is there.  My husband and I enjoy it very much.
