Oyster Mushroom Stroganoff is a delicious and creamy pasta dish that is perfect for a large dinner. We made this recipe vegan and used impossible ground beef and blue oyster mushrooms, but you can cook this dish with a mixture of mushrooms such as chestnuts and bellas and by leaving the plant-based beef out of the stroganoff sauce. For a gluten-free option, substitute the flour and pasta for 1:1 gluten-free alternatives.
For a vegetarian or non-vegan option, substitute the non-dairy milk for heavy cream and the olive oil for butter.
Ingredients
Serves: 5-6 Time: 50 minutes
Oyster Mushroom Stroganoff
1/2 – 1 cup blue oyster mushrooms
3 Tbs olive oil
6 garlic cloves, minced
1 tsp dried thyme
1 Tbs white vinegar
1 1/2 cups vegetable broth
2 Tbs soy sauce
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1Â (13.5Â oz) can of coconut milk or other unsweetened nondairy milk
Begin by preparing your mushrooms, wiping off any dirt and cleaning them. With oyster mushrooms, carefully tear them into segments. Then prepare the garlic.
In a large skillet, heat about 1 Tbs of olive oil over medium-high heat.
Once hot, begin cooking the mushrooms. Cook until they are nicely browned, stirring occasionally for about 8-10 minutes. Then add half of the garlic and a pinch of salt, thyme, and paprika.
While the mushrooms are cooking, combine the vegetable broth, tamari, soy sauce, and flour in a medium bowl. Whisk together until there are no clumps of flour remaining.
Add the vinegar to the mushrooms to deglaze the pan, reducing heat as needed to simmer. Then, add the vegetable roux to the pan with the mushrooms and continue to mix together to keep the flour from clumping. Adjust heat to bring to a simmer and then add in the non-dairy milk, tahini, nutritional yeast, a pinch of salt and black pepper, and the rest of the paprika.
Bring the mushroom roux to a simmer over medium-low heat, cooking for about 10 minutes or until thick and creamy.
Meanwhile, bring some water to a boil to begin cooking your pasta and in a separate skillet, add the remaining olive oil to the pan.
Begin sauteing the onion and remaining garlic and thyme, cooking for about 2-3 minutes.
Then, add the impossible or beyond ground beef. Cook together for 8-10 minutes or until the ground beef is browned.
Transfer the ground beef mixture to the mushroom sauce and simmer together for 5-7 minutes. Stir in the dijon mustard and dill to the stroganoff sauce, taste, and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper.
Once the pasta is done, combine with the sauce, serve and enjoy!
*You can also make this recipe without the plant-based meat alternative. Just cook the onion with the mushrooms and garlic instead.

Vegan Lemon Bars are a delightful dessert to enjoy in springtime. This recipe is easy to make and modify for your dietary needs. For a gluten-free option, try substituting with 1:1 gluten-free flour. Top with a sprinkle of powdered sugar or fresh raspberries or blueberries.
Ingredients
Yield: ~20 small squares Time: 45 minutes
Vegan Lemon Bars
Shortbread
1 cup non-dairy butter
1 Tbs lemon zest
1/4 cup powdered sugar
1/8 tsp salt
2 cups flour
Lemon Filling
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice (about 3 lemon’s worth)
3/4 cup coconut cream*
1/4 cup cornstarch
3 Tbs lemon zest
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup vegan butter
1/8 tsp salt
Small pinch of turmeric powder
Extra powdered sugar for topping
Directions
Preheat the oven to 350ºF
Prepare a square baking pan with parchment paper or lightly grease with vegan butter
In a mixing bowl, cream together the butter, lemon zest, powdered sugar, and salt until thoroughly combined.
Then, gradually fold the butter mix into the flour by hand, being careful not to overmix. The dough should form together and only be a little crumbly.
Press the dough into the baking pan evenly. Place the shortbread in the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden.
Meanwhile, prepare the lemon filling.
In a medium saucepan, whisk together the lemon juice and cornstarch until thoroughly mixed and free of lumps.
Then, whisk in the salt, lemon zest, coconut cream, sugar, and butter.
Set heat to medium on the stove to cook the lemon filling, whisking together constantly until the butter and sugar have melted. Then add in the turmeric.
Continue whisking for about 10-15 minutes until the filling begins to bubble.
Remove from heat once done. The filling should be glossy and thick.
Evenly distribute the filling on top of the shortbread and allow it to cool and set.
Cut and serve once fully cooled.
Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Wait until the lemon bars have fully cooled before dusting with powdered sugar on top, otherwise, the sugar will dissolve into the filling.
*You can try and substitute the coconut cream for another thick non-dairy milk such as cashew or oatmilk combined with silken tofu (1/2 cup each), but will result in not as thick of a bar filling.

Strawberry Chia Seed Pudding is a light dessert or breakfast that you can serve with fresh fruit such as strawberries, blueberries, or bananas. If you’re serving this for breakfast, top with some granola or toasted coconut flakes if desired. Chia seeds are rich in magnesium, protein, omega-3, and dietary fiber. A powerful nutritional punch in such a tiny seed!
Ingredients
Serves: 4 Time: 4 hours or overnight
Strawberry Chia Seed Pudding
1 1/4 cup dairy or non-dairy milk
3 Tbs chia seeds
1 Tbs maple syrup or honey
4-5 medium strawberries, destemmed
Directions
In a blender, combine the strawberries and milk. Blend until smooth. You may pass the milk through a sieve if you wish to remove the strawberry seeds.
Otherwise, transfer the milk to a jar with a lid and add the chia seeds and sweetener.
Seal the jar tightly and shake it all together 6-7 times.
Place in the refrigerator and chill overnight for at least 4 hours, giving it an occasional shake (before going to bed) to keep the chia seeds from settling to the bottom.
The pudding will be done when the chia seeds are fully expanded and the mixture is thick and a little gel-like.
When you’re ready to serve, distribute evenly and serve with fresh sliced strawberries and top with other fruit if desired.
Store leftovers in the refrigerator for 2-3 days and enjoy with fruit or mix on top of yogurt or oatmeal.
