Vegan gravy

Did you know that it's just as easy to make vegan gravy as regular gravy? The secret lies in "no chicken" or "no beef" Better than Bouillon, which you can buy on Amazon. This concentrated, jarred broth tastes like chicken or beef stock but is vegan. So, you can just make gravy the traditional way, using Better than Bouillon instead of broth or meat drippings. It tastes just like meat gravy! I serve this with vegetarian Thanksgiving casserole, mashed potatoes, or homemade cheese fries.

Vegan gravy on not-so-vegan cheese fries

Vegan gravy
2 T vegan butter (or regular butter if you're vegetarian)

1 small onion, diced finely
8 oz mushrooms, diced (optional)
2 t minced garlic
heaping 1/3 cup white or whole wheat flour
3 cups water
1 T "no chicken" or "no beef" better than bouillon

1 t Italian seasoning or poultry seasoning
1 t vegan Worcestershire sauce
pepper to taste

Saute vegetables in butter until golden brown on medium-high heat. Sprinkle in flour, and cook, stirring frequently, for another 2 minutes. The mixture will be a kind of thick brown paste at this point. Slowly add water while stirring. Add remaining ingredients and simmer for 5 to 10 minutes.
