    Cauliflower Mushroom Gravy

    INGREDIENTS

    • 2 cups chopped portobello mushrooms
    • 2 cups cauliflower
    • 2 cups OWL Broth Elixir (we used Turkey!)
    • 2 tbsp ghee or coconut oil
    • 1 tsp minced fresh thyme
    • 1 tbsp minced fresh rosemary
    • 1 tsp liquid aminos
    • sea salt + black pepper to taste
    • 2 cups plant-based milk

     

    INSTRUCTIONS

    • To make, get into the mood by throwing on your favorite holiday playlist. Light some candles and break out your kitchen aids and tools. You will need a Dutch oven or a sauté pan, a veggie steamer, a knife, cutting board, measuring spoons, and a high powered blender. And all of your yummy ingredients, of course.
    • Start by steaming your cauliflower until soft to the poke. While that's going, you can start to sauté your mushrooms in ghee or coconut oil along with your rosemary and thyme. You'll want to cook them on medium-high heat until they are golden brown and crispy. Next, you will want to heat up your plant milk and broth until perfectly warm. Be careful not to heat too high as the milk will curdle, which causes it to loos its creamy texture. When the mushrooms are gold, the cauliflower is cooked, and your liquids warm, it's time to blend it all into an epic gravy. Throw all of your ingredients into a high-powered blender and blend until silky smooth. Serve with your favorite veggies or holiday favorites.
