Instructions
Portobello Mushrooms

- Slowly pour in polenta and whisk to combine. Reduce heat to low and whisk for 3-4 minutes until beginning to thicken.

- Once cooked through, add non-dairy butter and nutritional yeast and stir to combine until butter has melted.
- Serve polenta topped with tomato sauce, portobello mushroom, and fresh basil.
Notes
If you don’t have polenta, this would also be delicious served over pasta, orzo, pasta, or with crusty bread!
If you don’t have an oven safe pan, complete steps 1-6 with the pan you have and then poor mixture into oven safe pan such as a casserole dish and complete the steps from there.
