Cashew Mushroom Gravy

You don’t have to give up rich tasting gravies if you are a Gluten Free Vegan.

Malcolm and I have done some research and have developed a wonderful gravy recipe into a GREAT Gluten Free Vegan Cashew Mushroom Gravy recipe.  Mushrooms and cashews are the ‘secret’ ingredient in this recipe that make it so special and delicious!

Try this gravy recipe next time you are craving the gluten and dairy filled counterpart and tell me what you think!

We have even used this for sausage and biscuits — although it did taste a bit different, it was still good!
