Vegan Mushroom Tetrazzini

Vegan Mushroom Tetrazzini

One of my favorite combinations is creamy and salty. Since becoming vegan I have found very few places this combination exists. The savory mushrooms are baked into a wonderfully creamy pasta dish creating salty and smoky areas nestled into the dish.

The majority of tetrazzinis are prepared with spaghetti noodles but we felt the penne holds the sauce nicer. Traditionally they are also made with meat but I promise if you make it with these mushrooms, you will not miss the meat.

  • I have not made this yet but have all ingredients. There is no measurement nor amount to use for the vegan Parmesan cheese, which is suppose to be processed with nutritional yeast and cashews ?? I really would like to know before attempting.

    • Hi! So sorry confusion. This is an older recipe card. The 1/2 cup raw cashews and 2 Tbsp of nutritional yeast at the end of the ingredient list is what makes the Parmesan. In the first direction it says to blend the two together to form a coarse powder. It is used primarily for a garnish so use as much or as little as you want. We used a sprinkle. Or it could be store bought as well. Probably around 1/2 cup. Please let us know what you think! Thank you for the comment!

      • Thankyou so much for answering my question. I have now made this at least 5 times. Delicious!! I’m having it again for lunch today and fixed my son a large plate to take home. He really likes it since meat and dairy hurts his stomach this is the perfect dish. I make a little extra of the liquid sauce so he can pour over and heat up. He really loves the sauce. 💯💯💯❤️❤️❤️
