Vegetarian Mushroom Stroganoff

People think when it comes to vegetarian recipes that you need to include tofu as your meat substitute. Don’t get me wrong, I love tofu, but it is not necessary in every recipe. If anything, most vegetarian/vegan recipes can be made hearty and filling by adding lots of vegetables and protein fillers such as lentils and beans. One of my favourite meat substitutes are mushrooms. Whether portobello or button mushrooms, I love them all and I find myself using them more often in my vegetarian recipes.

This mushroom stroganoff was so easy to make and I found myself polishing off the dish in two days time (but mostly the first day.) I actually cannot believe how much of this stuff I ate! I kept going back for seconds, and thirds… and then I lost count. This is what happens when Dan goes away for a weekend!! Good thing it wasn’t breaded mushrooms this time around…

I absolutely loved this mushroom stroganoff. I cannot wait to make it again (it may be tomorrow.) It is just so easy, and packed full of flavours, all the while not being “too mushroomy.” Sounds weird, but sometimes I can get creeped out by too many mushrooms (or if my portobello mushroom burger is too thick.) And I feel this recipe is not too bad for you.

• 1 tbsp. all-purpose flour

• 1/2 lb button mushrooms, sliced
• 1 tbsp. chopped fresh thyme
• 1/2 tbsp. fresh rosemary, finely chopped
