Healthy Plant-Based Version Of Traditional Mushroom Lasagna

This Gluten-Free Vegan Creamy Mushroom Lasagna is a savory comfort meal with a combination of creamy vegan mushroom sauce and gluten-free pasta.

It's a favorite in my home because my husband loves mushrooms and my boys love pasta, so it makes everyone happy 🙂

Traditionally, lasagna recipes include cheese and even though this is a vegan recipe, it doesn't even use vegan cheese.

It doesn't need it and you won't miss it at all!

This lasagna gets its creaminess from the vegan mushroom sauce which is layered between the lasagna noodles and the savory mushroom mixture.

It's then topped with a golden gluten-free breadcrumb type topping to add a crunchy texture to it.

Can Be Prepared In Under 15 Minutes

Don't be fooled by the ingredient list and recipe instructions for this dish!

It's really simple to make in only 3 quick and easy steps.

For example:

1. Mushroom Mixture - prepping the veggies for this part takes about 5 minutes
2. Mushroom Sauce - making the sauce takes about 5 minutes
3. Topping - mixing the ingredients for the topping takes about 5 minutes

You can prepare this meal in about 15 minutes and the rest of the time is inactive baking time so there's no hands-on needed!

Made With Clean, Real Food Ingredients

This recipe is 100% vegan and 100% gluten-free - just make sure you use gluten-free no-boil lasagna noodles!

It's also a great recipe for new vegans who are transitioning into animal-free products or who are trying to eventually steer away from processed vegan ingredients.

I don't normally purchase processed vegan ingredients except on a rare occasion and don't recommend them because they are processed and not "real food".

But, in my opinion, it's better to eat a lightly processed vegan ingredient as a new vegan than continue to consume animal products.

If it helps someone become vegan or helps them to remain vegan, to me that's a better option 🙂

In this recipe, I used vegan cream cheese (Kite Hill) which is dairy-free and made with almond milk. 

The rest of the ingredients are clean and unprocessed.

This healthier recipe is vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free, soy-free and egg-free.

How Do I Make This Recipe: Step-by-Step Instructions

Here is how to make this recipe and I'll show you with step-by-step instructions below:

The recipe may look a little complicated, but don't worry - but with only three quick + easy steps, it really isn't!

Step 1: Prep The Veggies For the Mushroom Mixture

Firstly, prep your veggies + herbs which only takes a few minutes and then saute them. Fresh herbs will give you the best flavor but you can also use dried herbs.

Step 2: Prepare The Mushroom Sauce

Secondly, prepare the mushroom sauce by heating up the coconut milk, tapioca flour (thickener) and nutritional yeast.

Step 3: Prepare The Topping

Thirdly, add the ingredients for the gluten-free bread crumb topping to a small bowl and stirring everything together. 

Step 4: Bake The Lasagna

Lastly, layer everything in your baking dish and bake it. 

Since I used "no-boil" lasagna, the inactive baking time is about 50 minutes but you can enjoy the warm, rustic aroma in your kitchen while you're waiting!
