A gluten-free and vegan side dish or appetizer option! With the creamy chickpea and nutritional yeast filling, you’d have no idea these are dairy free. These are also packed with protein and nutrients, making them a low calorie and nutrient-dense snack.

Ingredients

  • -One container (6-8 oz) of whole button mushrooms, washed and gills removed using a paring knife or a small spoon
  • -One can of chickpeas (16 oz), drained
  • -2 cloves of garlic
  • -1/2 cup greens (I used a mix of spinach and arugula), packed
  • -Juice half a lemon
  • -1/4 cup nutritional yeast
  • -Drizzle of olive oil
  • -Salt and pepper to taste
  • -Hemp seeds and smoked paprika for garnish

Instructions

  1. 1. Preheat the oven to 350 and spray a cookie sheet with nonstick spray or olive oil.
  2. 2. Make your filling by blending the chickpeas, greens, garlic, lemon juice, nutritional yeast and olive oil in a small food processor or blender. Add salt and pepper to taste.
  3. 3. Carefully fill the mushrooms with the mixture -you will have some left over- and bake for 25-30 minutes. (I overcooked ours a little)
  4. 4. Top with extra sea salt, hemp seeds and a sprinkle of smoked paprika.

Notes

  • Tip: save the leftover filling to use as a dip for veggies or spread for wraps and sandwiches!
