This blog is killing it with great vegan food posts. You might roll your eyes at the name, but it’s actually a play on people thinking vegan food is hipster. Definitely give them a follow.
portobello burgers with garlic & olive cashew cheese
i usually hate mushroom burgers - they’re slimy, over-marinated, and just make my stomach queasy. THIS burger, on the other hand, was so perfect that we both ate ours in about a minute flat. the cashew cheese is totally necessary for complete burger enjoyment.
for the cashew cheese: same as our original, except add in a tbsp more garlic and 3 tbsp sliced black olive.
for the mushrooms, clean and de-stem the heads, then marinate in this mixture for 20 minutes:
- both white wine & rosé wine (or a sweet red)
- olive oil
- soy sauce
- salt, pepper, thyme, & oregano
when it’s done marinating, place in a pan, covered on medium heat. steam them until they’re softened. serve on a toasted bun/bread with fresh lettuce & tomato, with the cashew cheese on top.
