Mushroom & Caramelized Onion Polenta



This vegan dish is comforting and filling, with caramelized onions and mushrooms on top of creamy polenta. It's great for any occasion.

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup polenta
  • 3 cups vegetable broth
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 large onion, thinly sliced
  • 2 cups mushrooms, sliced such as cremini or button
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup nutritional yeast
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley for garnish optional

Instructions:

Bring the vegetable broth to a boil in a saucepan

Pour the polenta in slowly while stirring all the time to avoid lumps

Turn down the heat and keep cooking, stirring often, for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the polenta is thick and creamy

In the meantime, heat the olive oil over medium heat in a different pan

It will take about 15 to 20 minutes of stirring every now and then while the onions are cooking until they are caramelized and golden brown

Add the mushrooms and garlic that has been minced to the pan with the onions

Cook for another 5 to 7 minutes, until the mushrooms are soft

Add the nutritional yeast and salt and pepper to taste after the polenta is cooked

You can serve the polenta with the caramelized onion and mushroom mix on top of it

Add fresh parsley as a garnish if you like

Have fun!
