Description
This recipe, “Vegan Stuffed Mushrooms,” offers a plant-based take on classic stuffed mushrooms, typically made with breadcrumbs, cheese, and sometimes meat
Ingredients
- 12 large button mushrooms, stems removed
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- ¼ cup chopped parsley
- 2 tbsp nutritional yeast
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
-
Preheat Oven and Prepare Baking Sheet: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
Prepare Mushrooms: Gently remove the stems from the mushrooms, creating a cavity for the filling. You can save the stems for another use (like adding them to soups or sauces).
-
Make Stuffing: In a large bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, minced garlic, chopped parsley, nutritional yeast, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Mix well until all the ingredients are evenly distributed.
-
Stuff Mushrooms: Spoon the breadcrumb mixture into the mushroom caps, pressing down lightly to pack it in. Don’t be afraid to overfill them slightly, as the filling will shrink a bit during baking.
-
Arrange on Baking Sheet: Place the stuffed mushrooms on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they’re not touching.
-
Bake: Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender and the stuffing is golden brown and slightly crispy.
-
Serve: Serve the stuffed mushrooms warm, optionally garnished with extra chopped parsley or a sprinkle of paprika.
