Ingredients

Scale

15 large white mushrooms, stems removed

1 cup raw cashews (soaked 20 minutes)

2 garlic cloves

2 tbsp nutritional yeast

2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped

1 tsp lemon juice

Salt and pepper to taste

2 tbsp olive oil

Optional: 1 tbsp sun-dried tomatoes or smoked paprika

Preheat oven to 375°F and line baking tray with parchment paper.

Place soaked cashews, garlic, lemon juice, nutritional yeast, salt and pepper in food processor and blend until smooth.

Fold in chopped parsley and optional sun-dried tomato.

Lightly oil mushroom caps and place cavity-side up.

Fill each cap with 1–2 teaspoons of cashew mixture, pressing gently.
