Ingredients

Instructions

  • 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!

Notes

  • To make a smaller appetizer: You could adjust this recipe to use smaller mushrooms (like cremini mushrooms). The exact size will affect how many mushrooms you can stuff. Adjust the baking time until the mushrooms are fully cooked.
  • To avoid ‘soggy’ mushrooms: Don't submerge them in water to clean them. Instead, use a lightly damp paper towel to wipe away any dirt.
  • Use a rimmed baking sheet: As the mushrooms can release liquid while cooking, using a rimmed baking sheet ensures easier clean-up.
