Quick and Easy Vegan Stroganoff

This quick and easy vegan stroganoff is the perfect weeknight meal for even the busiest of nights. If you haven’t tried seitan yet, this is a great recipe for trying it out in a dish that is familiar comfort food. 

Have I told you that my husband is great cook? He’s often making dinner around here behind the scenes. I tell you, there’s nothing better than heading to the gym after work and then walking into the house where dinner is almost ready. (Seriously, I’m one lucky gal.)

A couple weeks ago, he made this quick and easy stroganoff and I totally raved about it. I wanted to share it with all of you so I had him make it a second time just last week and write down the recipe.

I love this quick and easy vegan stroganoff because you can whip it up in one pan and you only need 10 ingredients to recreate it at home. I really made it a one pan meal by using a pre-cooked microwavable pasta that comes in a pouch for a really easy meal. You could also cook up your favorite pasta on the weekend and just reheat it when you make this recipe to save time. (Why does it seem like water takes forever to boil when you are hungry for dinner?)

For those of you who may not be familiar with seitan, have no fear! It is a plant-based protein that is made from wheat gluten and has a chewy texture similar to beef or chicken. I promise it is not as weird as it sounds!

This quick and easy vegan stroganoff is a good one to make when trying out seitan for the first time in a more familiar comfort food like stroganoff. Can’t find seitan? You could easily substitute with white beans or chickpeas in a pinch.
