Gluten Free Vegan Stuffed Mushrooms
With the holiday season about to go into full swing, I think it is a good idea to have some gluten free appetizer recipes on hand. No matter the size of the meal to come (i.e. a Thanksgiving feast of unholy proportions) I can’t resist a few nibbles before.
Our family has lots of different food sensitivities and eating preferences, so this holiday season I am going with appetizers that are really safe – gluten free, vegan stuffed mushrooms. I just love stuffed mushrooms so I figure if one kind is good, two kinds are even better!
The first is a barbecue version. The stems of the mushrooms, onions, a bit of parsley (we need our greens after all) and to hold it all together, Barbecue Vegenaise Gourmet.
The second is based on my favorite dip – artichoke. Super simple, super creamy, super delicious. For these I used Roasted Garlic Vegenaise Gourmet. If your store does not carry these flavored Vegenaise products then you can a) ask your store to carry them because they are awesome and b) substitute regular Vegenaise and add 2 tablespoons of gluten free, vegan barbecue sauce to the first and 2 cloves of minced garlic to the later.
I loved the flavor of these mushroom fillings but I needed to bulk them up a bit. Normally I would use gluten free breadcrumbs but I figured finding gluten free, vegan breadcrumbs would be more challenging. Thankfully the answer was sitting in my freezer. I had a box of Van’s Gluten Free Totally Natural Frozen Waffles hanging out in there. A scan of the ingredients made them appear to be the perfect thing and a quick internet search confirmed that there are no animal products in the waffles. Hooray!
Another reason to rejoice is that you can prepare these ahead, cover with plastic wrap and store in the fridge until you want to bake them. So helpful during the busy holidays!
These gluten free vegan stuffed mushrooms are going be used over and over in my home this holiday season. I hope you will give them a try as well!

Hi, I have 2 questions. I’m overseas and don’t have access to the range of products. I’m unable to get the veganaise dip or the vans waffles. Can you suggest any replacements?
Hi Saubia,
Are you vegan? If not, you can substitute the vegenaise with regular mayonnaise. If you are vegan, do you have any brand of vegan mayonnaise alternative where you live? If so, use that. For the waffles, they can be any gluten free frozen waffles or you can use gluten free (and vegan, if needed) breadcrumbs. You could make your own breadcrumbs too, just toast some gluten free bread and pulse in a food processor until it resembles breadcrumbs. Hope this helps!
xo,
Carol
