Garlic Butter Mushrooms (Vegan & Low-Carb)
🌱 100% Vegan, 100% Flavor
Traditional garlic butter mushrooms use dairy, but with the right plant-based ingredients, you can get the same richness. Vegan butter melts beautifully into a silky sauce, infused with garlic, soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free folks), and a sprinkle of fresh herbs.
If there’s one dish that screams savory comfort with minimal effort, it’s this: garlic butter mushrooms. They’re tender, umami-packed, and dripping with garlicky goodness — all without a trace of dairy. Whether you’re hosting friends, meal prepping, or just treating yourself to a cozy night in, these mushrooms will have you licking the spoon.
🍽️ Perfect for:
- Topping on toast
- Mixing into pasta or zucchini noodles
- Serving alongside roasted veggies or tofu
- Eating straight out of the bowl (no judgment here!)
📝 Recipe Snapshot:
Ingredients
- 1 lb baby bella or cremini mushrooms
- 3 tbsp vegan butter
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp soy sauce or tamari
- 1 tsp balsamic vinegar (optional, for extra depth)
- Fresh parsley, chopped
- Salt & pepper to taste
Directions
- Clean your mushrooms with a damp cloth—don’t soak!
- In a large skillet, melt the vegan butter over medium heat.
- Add the garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Toss in the mushrooms, soy sauce, and balsamic. Let them cook down until golden and tender, about 10–12 minutes.
- Sprinkle with chopped parsley and serve hot.
đź’ˇ Pro Tips:
- Let the mushrooms sit in the pan without stirring too often—they need time to brown.
- Want extra richness? Add a splash of coconut cream at the end.
- Keep it keto? Skip the balsamic and serve with avocado or roasted cauliflower.
