Shiitake Mushroom Gravy {Vegan & GF}
Pour on the gravy! This Shiitake Mushroom Gravy is full of flavor and is perfect for your holiday table. It’s easy to make, comforting and delicious!
When I was young, the only time I had gravy was at holiday meals like Thanksgiving and Christmas. When I did get my paws on some, I would go nuts with it and pour it all over my whole plate.
My aunt had to start making a whole another can because I’d have to have one gravy boat all to myself. And yes, I said “canned” – that’s how we used to roll.
Nowadays, I like to create more homemade foods so that I know exactly what I’m getting.
While fresh herbs aren’t always easy to get or can cost more, I do recommend using them. They make a big difference flavor-wise.

Pour On the Gravy
Am I the only one that used to (or maybe still do) take a big ol scoop of mashed potatoes and create a kind of well in the middle and fill it with gravy?
I called it my gravy volcano. It was my favorite. I’m actually annoyed at myself that I didn’t take a picture of one.
If I could have, I would only have eaten the mashed potatoes and gravy for all of my holiday dinners. By the way, if you’re looking for some fabulously creamy yet healthy mashed potatoes check out my Cauliflower Mashed Potatoes.
They use half cauliflower half mashed potatoes and they’re as creamy as all get out – no one would know they’re hiding cauliflower.
All this to say I’m loving my new Shiitake Mushroom Gravy and I think you will too!
Shiitake Mushroom Gravy
I went with shiitake mushrooms for the gravy because they are my favorite but you can sub in any kind of mushroom your heart desires.
Like I said above, I was used to canned gravy growing up so making fresh gravy was really exciting. I have to say, I was very proud of myself coming up with a tasty one.
I also love this gravy because it’s:
- gluten-free
- dairy-free
- meat-free
- and flavor-ful
- easy to make
Now get yourself a big plate of mashed potatoes and pour on this delicious gravy!
