How To Make Vegan Risotto Cheesy
The biggest problem vegans face when making any sort of pasta is how to make it creamy and cheesy without using any of the typical ingredients to do this.
In vegan risottos, nutritional yeast performs culinary miracles. Its main use is to impart a “cheesy” flavor, which is characteristic of risottos, but it also contributes to the dish’s overall creaminess.
It also adds some additional nutrients to food. Just add it in at the very end of the cooking process and mix. Add more to make it even creamier.
This is a meal that’s both hearty and simple. This easy chanterelle stew is cozy and warm and features the scrumptious flavor of wild mushrooms as the star ingredient.
This hearty and earthy stew that’s full of the delightful flavor of chanterelles is converted into a complete meal by the addition of lentils and potatoes.
These two ingredients not only add even more flavor and body to the stew but also make it even healthier. Lentils are an excellent source of protein for vegans, while potatoes are packed with carbs to give you the energy to get through the day.

If you’re looking for an amazing breakfast dish to try, then you must make this scrambled vegan ‘egg’ meal that consists of fried potatoes, wild mushrooms, and onions. This vegan morning scramble with chanterelles is based on a traditional meal from Austria.
This straightforward dish is revered as a national treasure in Austria, where it’s recognized by the name Eierschwammerlgrostl.
That’s quite a mouthful, don’t you think? This dish is made up of fried potatoes and wild mushrooms that are very scrumptious.
The name of the vivid yellow chanterelle mushroom comes from the German word “Eierschwammerl,” which translates to “egg mushroom.”
This meal is often prepared with scrambled eggs whenever it’s served in Austria. That obviously won’t do for this vegan recipe (see also: 20 Amazing Vegan Plum Recipes)though.
Instead, rather than the tofu that you may be expecting here, the “eggs” in this recipe are actually made from chickpea flour.
The chickpea flour and a dash of kala namak both contribute protein to the dish, while the eggy flavor comes from the kala namak. The golden color and additional taste come from the use of a little bit of curry powder.
If you want to bring some Mexican flavors into your kitchen but aren’t sure how to do it the vegan way, then this is the best recipe for you to start with.

The carnitas is made on the stovetop with all of the traditional flavors of traditional Mexican carnitas, then swiftly caramelized under the broiler flames in the orange gravy for just a few minutes until crisp at the edges.
For a taco Tuesday or any Mexican-themed night, this is the perfect recipe to use!
