Vegan Mushroom Stroganoff

When I’m craving some creamy pasta, I make this Creamy Vegan Mushroom Stroganoff Recipe for dinner. Generally, Fridays are “stay at home” nights. Although the weekend is beginning, we are both tired from work, and to be honest, I usually want to make something simple.

At our house, pasta is a staple. We love the variety of noodles, and of course, the fact most noodles are vegan helps immensely. In fact, recently, I am addicted to gluten-free noodles. Recently, I found a Chickpea Tumeric Pasta, which is not only gluten-free, its low in calories as well.

WHAT KIND OF PASTA TO USE FOR CREAMY VEGAN  MUSHROOM STROGANOFF

Although I chose a gluten-free chickpea and turmeric pasta and shaped pasta will work for vegan mushroom stroganoff recipe. In fact, you can even use quinoa if you prefer. 

Not only is it gluten-free, but it only has two ingredients, and it is perfect with Creamy Vegan Mushroom Stroganoff.

When I was a kid, my grandma made the best beef stroganoff I  had ever eaten; it was creamy and delicious. Her secret of using tomato paste in her cream sauce, giving the sauce a deeper flavor.

WHAT’S THE SECRET TO THE VEGAN MUSHROOM STROGANOFF GRAVY? 

Although I generally use almond milk for my creamy sauces,  I decided to try using some raw cashews in this recipe. I only used 1/4 cup for the entire recipe, which serves 6 people, so I figured it wouldn’t hurt.

WHAT ARE THE INGREDIENTS? 

• 16-ounce pack, plus 8-ounce package, sliced Baby Bellas or Other Mushrooms of Choice
• 1 large, diced Yellow Onion
• 2 minced Shallots
• 2 cloves, minced Garlic
• 3 cups Organic Vegetable Broth
• 2 Tablespoons Organic Tomato Paste
• 2 teaspoons Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Sea Salt
• 1 teaspoon Fresh Ground Pepper
• 1/2 cup Dry White Wine

And, of course, the secret ingredient is the cashew cream: 

• 1/2 cup Raw Cashews
• 1/2 cup Organic Vegetable Broth
• 1 Tablespoon Lemon Juice
• 1 Clove Garlic, Minced

Despite most instructions that require soaking cashews, if you have a high-speed quality blender, it isn’t necessary.

In order to give the Vegan Mushroom Stroganoff a meaty texture, I used a variety of mushrooms. Although I love shiitake mushrooms I chose a combination of button mushrooms and baby portobellos, because those were the only ones available at the store.

Also, I like a lot of mushrooms in my dishes, as well as shallots. Furthermore, the combination of onions and shallots creates an unbelievable flavor, and white wine brings all the flavors together.
