Oh so creamy and dreamy and loaded with flavor! This tasty vegan mushroom stroganoff recipe is also loaded with nutrients like B-vitamins, vitamin D, potassium, selenium, iron, fiber, and more. It is easy to have a delicious meal that is also good for you!

Lucky for you, it can be made gluten free simply by choosing a gluten free pasta. Steamed potatoes and raw cashews are the key to make this sauce thick and ultra creamy without the need for flour. 

If you would like a lower fat version of this vegan mushroom stroganoff (and nut-free), you can use cooked white beans instead of cashews. If you choose this alternative, you will need to use less dairy-free milk.

One more tip before we get to the vegan mushroom stroganoff recipe: if you do not have a high speed blender like a VitamixBlendtec, or Ninja, you should soak the cashews for a few hours or over night to soften them. This will make it easier to blend the cashews into a creamy consistency without a fancy expensive blender.
