Vegan Mushroom Gravy
2 cups Imagine Mushroom Broth
2 TBSP flour
1 cup sliced onion
1 cup sliced mushrooms
salt & pepper, to taste
In a large sprayed skilled saute onions and mushrooms, seasoning with salt and pepper. Cook until mushrooms release juices and onions are almost translucent. In a bowl whisk together broth and flour, until blended. Pour into skillet with mushrooms and onions and cook until thickens into gravy, stirring often to avoid scorching. Serve over mashed potatoes and Mushroom Burger. This dish is GREAT with fresh or frozen green peas.
I also made some Roasted Cauliflower as another side dish....I love roasted cauliflower. Roasting this vegetable changes the flavor and the texture. There is something pretty amazing about roasted cauliflower! Here is the recipe...
Roasted Cauliflower with Sea Salt
3 cups cauliflower florets, about 1 medium head chopped into florets
Olive oil cooking Spray
kosher salt, Maldon sea salt or other artisan flaked sea salt.
Preheat oven to 425F. Spray cauliflower florets with cooking spray and sprinkle with sea salt. Spread cauliflower in an even layer on a cast iron pan or a cookie sheet. Roast 10 minutes. Turn cauliflower over and re-spray. Roast another 10-15 minutes, or until cauliflower is just browned and fork tender. Season with more salt if desired.

P.S...I didn't want to leave you wondering what health benefits cauliflower has to offer, so here is the link... http://whfoods.org/genpage.php?tname=foodspice&dbid=13 ...and now you know!!
P.P.S....Now that I've made the dish, I'm gonna have to say the Mushroom Burgers were good but probably better for a BBQ. The Vegan Mushroom Gravy was AMAZING, and when poured over the mashed potatoes and mixed with the peas it was probably the best gravy I've ever had. I could just eat the mashed potatoes and gravy (with peas) and be completely satisfied. Everything was really good and super flavorful, I would just eat them separately next time! Until next week!!

Lovely to meet the fun guy :)
I have to say this looks all yummy. I am actually rather curious about the mushroom gravy.
Thanks for sharing.
Have you ever tried mashed Cauliflower? I heard its a great substitute for mashed potatoes.... Just haven't had the time to try it myself.
I tried it when I was on one of my many low-carb diets....I could tell it was cauliflower! Which I really like cauliflower, but it's not mashed potatoes!
Rising prices for gas, electricity and other basics of the cost
of living mean that many people are finding their budget stretched more than in the past.
These should always be viewable by the customers in store
and on receipts, but if you find them in neither of these places feel free
to ask the sales clerk. The first things you'll want to pay each month before anything else are the necessities--food, housing and utilities.
