Vegan Mushroom Stroganoff

SAVORY MUSHROOM SYMPHONY

The mushrooms are cooked in two stages, which helps build deep, savory flavor while keeping a tender, satisfying bite. The first batch cooks down for richness, and the second adds texture and a fresh, earthy feel to the stroganoff.

CREAMY STROGANOFF & PASTA BASE

The creamy, well-seasoned sauce clings to the tender pasta, adding rich flavor and just enough brightness to bring the whole dish together.
