This recipe was our piece-de-resistance for Christmas dinner, and we made it following the instructions in Chloe Coscarelli’s Chloe’s Vegan Italian Kitchen with small modifications: the addition of a bit of minced seitan and a change in spices. I’m reproducing it here, but strongly advise all of you to buy the book, which has many more wonderful recipes!
2 tbsp olive oil
1 onion
1 cup cashews
4 garlic cloves
1 cup cooked brown rice
2 cups cooked lentils
1/2 cup seitan
1/4 cup breadcrumbs
1/2 cup vegetable broth (we used the broth in which the seitan was stored)
1 tbsp Herbs de Provence
10 portobello mushrooms
1 tomato
Preheat oven to 350 and drizzle baking sheet with olive oil. Remove gills and stems from mushrooms and thinly mince. Heat up olive oil in a pan, slice up the onion and fry them up with the cashews until translucent. Add garlic continue sauteeing a few more minutes.
Transfer onion mixture into bowl and add rice, lentils, chopped up seitan, broth, breadcrumbs, and spices.
Brush both sides of each mushroom with a bit of oil, place in one layer on baking sheet, and generously spoon stuffing on top of each. Place a thin slice of tomato on each mushroom. Place baking sheet in oven and bake for about 30 minutes.
We had four leftover mushrooms, which we used to make mini-burgers for the next day. Stay tuned!
