How Do You Serve It?
The recipe works any time you need a basic brown gravy.
While many people traditionally use mushroom gravy over turkey, chicken, pork, or steak, I like to serve it with roasted veggies or spaghetti squash.
Growing up, one of my favorite weekend dinners was whenever my mom would make us mashed potatoes, green beans, and meatloaf or burger patties covered in thick homemade gravy. So after going vegetarian in high school, I began to replicate that meal by simply replacing the hamburgers with myVeggie Burger Recipe.
The vegetarian mushroom gravy is good for baked potatoes or sweet potatoes, biscuits and gravy, or over rice, quinoa, or toast. Its also pretty great on its own add chickpeas or black beans for a delicious high-protein and meatless main dish that meat eaters will love too.
Healthy Mushroom Gravy Ingredients
The recipe can be made with just 6 staple ingredients: onion, mushrooms, broth, garlic, salt, and your favorite thickener of choice.
Most flours work here, including spelt, white, or whole wheat. For gluten free gravy, try sorghum or rice flour. Or for keto gravy, coconut flour is also fine to use.
As for the type of mushrooms, its completely up to you. Ill often use a mix of button mushrooms, shiitakes, portobello, oyster, maitake, cremini, porcini, baby bella, or whatever looks interesting (and isnt crazy expensive!) at the grocery store. If you want to add some chopped carrots along with the mushrooms, feel free to do that too.
The gravy can be cooked in a slow cooker or crock pot or on the stove. I havent tried it in an instant pot but dont see why that wouldnt work as well. If you try it that way, be sure to report back with results.
