These vegan stuffed mushrooms are filled with potatoes and spinach and topped with crunchy, buttery breadcrumbs.
The other day I was really in the mood for stuffed mushrooms. Darryl used to make the best stuffed mushrooms…they were loaded with lots of cheese and other unhealthy things. But now that I am dairy and egg free, those cheesy mushrooms aren’t an option.
I really hadn’t attempted to make stuffed mushrooms since I changed my diet, because I felt like I couldn’t make a decent replacement for Darryl’s original creation. But I improvised, and I’m happy with the result! These vegan stuffed mushrooms are delicious.
I filled these with a creamy mashed potato and spinach mixture and then topped them with buttery breadcrumbs. The result was a very flavorful appetizer that would be perfect for your next party!
Vegan Stuffed Mushrooms.
Ingredients
- 12 white button mushrooms cleaned and stems removed
- 1 cup mashed potatoes
- 1/2 cup frozen chopped spinach thawed and drained
- 1/2 cup gluten free bread crumbs I made mine in the oven with leftover bread, or you can purchase them
- 2 Tablespoons melted vegan buttery spread
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic salt
- 1/8 teaspoon pepper
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Put your mushroom caps on a foil lined cookie sheet for easy cleanup.
- Mix the mashed potatoes with the spinach and spoon into the mushroom caps.
- Mix the breadcrumbs with the melted buttery spread, garlic salt and pepper and pile on top of each mushroom.
- Bake at 350 for about 20 minutes. Keep an eye on them so the breadcrumbs don’t get too brown.
- Serve immediately.
Enjoy! I didn’t know if I would miss the cheese in these, but the mashed potatoes had the creamy quality that I was looking for. You could add some dairy free cheese to the mashed potatoes if you wanted that cheesy quality.
What do you stuff mushrooms with?
Absolutely loved this recipe! Tasty, filling and not a lot of ingredients! A favorite for the vegans and non-vegans. Thank you for this!
So glad you liked them! :)
How did you make vegan mashed potatoes?
Just make them the way you normally would, but use vegan buttery spread and non-dairy milk.
Such a great idea! I’m pinning for a possible holiday appetizer :)
Thanks for pinning!
These stuffed mushrooms look so yummy!
I’d really love for you to link up at my weekend link party that is going on right now at The Best Blog Recipes {The Weekend re-Treat} http://thebestblogrecipes.blogspot.com/
Hope to see you there!
they look amazing! I was planning on making stuffed mushrooms tonight too:)
I made Darryl’s version when you posted it way back. They are so good! There are so many things you can stuff the mushrooms with! I’ll have to try them again. I haven’t done them since I tried Darryl’s version.
