Vegan Stuffed Portobello Mushrooms Food

VEGAN STUFFED PORTABELLA MUSHROOMS.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Grind the almonds in the blender/food processor to create fine mix.
• Quarter the Cremini mushrooms. If they are too big cut them in 8.
• Cut zucchinis in half, and scrape out the pulp (use the spoon). Reserve the shells - you can stuff them and bake with the mushrooms.
• If using cauliflower, cut the florets in small pieces.
• Heat 3 tbsp of olive oil on the medium-high heat in a frying pan, add garlic, ginger, mushrooms and fry for 7-10 minutes, or until the mushrooms loose most of the liquid.
• Lower the heat to medium and add carrots, apples, zucchinis, cauliflower, mix well and let fry for 5-7 minutes, or until all the vegetables are tender.
• Add spices, tofu, and Tamari. Keep mixing until the tofu is thoroughly warm.
• Taste and adjust for seasoning.
• Add the almonds and stir the mixture. Now it should be easier to work with the filling.
• Let the filling cool; meanwhile cut the stems of the Portobellos and scrape of the gills (spoon works the best for this).
• Lightly oil the baking pan with the remaining olive oil.
• Stuff the Portobello cups and the zucchini shells with the stuffing, be generous :) Put them on the baking sheet and start the timer.
• The mushrooms come out best after 20-25 minutes of baking. Zucchinis would take as long as 40 minutes of baking.
• You could add some shredded vegan cheddar on top during the last 5 minutes of baking.

Steps:

• You can watch the video in the post for visual instructions.Preheat the oven to 360 F (180 C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Remove the stems of the mushrooms and chop them into pieces. Set aside.
• Add the chickpeas to a bowl and mash them with a fork.
• Heat oil in a large skillet, add onion, pepper, and all spices. Stir to combine and cook for 3-4 minutes.
• Also, stir in garlic, mashed chickpeas, and walnuts.
• Next add the tomato paste, tamari, balsamic vinegar, and dairy-free milk. Stir to combine.
• Finally, add the chopped mushroom stems and stir. Cook for a few more minutes, then set aside.
• Place the portobello mushrooms on the lined baking sheet and fill each mushroom with the filling until there is no filling left.
• Bake in the oven for about 10 minutes, then add vegan cheese of choice (I used my vegan cheese sauce) and bake for a further 10 minutes. Garnish with fresh herbs and enjoy!

VEGETARIAN STUFFED PORTOBELLO MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate. Turn on the oven's broiler to a low setting.
• Combine squash, zucchini, peppers, onion, 2 tablespoons olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and 2 1/2 tablespoons seasoning blend in a bowl. Mix well.
• Cook on the preheated grill until tender, 7 to 8 minutes.
• While vegetables are cooking, rub remaining olive oil on outsides and insides of mushrooms. Lay face-down on a baking sheet and sprinkle remaining seasoning blend over.
• Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler on very low setting.
• Broil until slightly darkened, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove mushrooms and turn upside-down. Fill mushrooms with grilled vegetables, then top with Parmesan and mozzarella cheese. Return to the broiler until cheese is lightly toasted, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle parsley around edges of serving plates, and put a few pineapple chunks on each mushroom for that "extra" touch to make it fancy!
