This vegan stroganoff recipe is an amazing adaptation of a family favorite. Creamy and full of flavor, even the meat eaters will want more!
I must say this dairy free recipe I am about to share with you is soooooo very good that all my dairy & meat loving friends and family have 2nds & 3rds. You will need a high powered blender. You will be blending nuts into a creamy sauce that you won’t believe is vegan stroganoff!
I use mushrooms often as my meat substitute. But I have also used Butler’s Soy Curls which are delicious. Since I have breast cancer now, I am not suppose to eat soy. So I will be relying on all kinds of mushrooms all the more. I also use a wide variety of gluten free noodles, so you can change the visual with your meals.
You know that stroganoff usually contains sour cream. Well this recipe is no different, except the sour cream is vegan and I have the recipe for the sour cream listed below also!! Enjoy.
