Protein-Packed Mashed Potatoes & Gravy


Ingredients
For the Potatoes

    3 lbs. russet or yukon gold potatoes, peeled if desired and cut into 1-2" chunks
    1 head cauliflower, broken into florets
    1 12oz. package firm silken tofu, such as Mori Nu brand
    1 head roasted garlic*
    1½ T. nutritional yeast, optional
    ½ cup raw cashews**
    Salt and pepper to taste

For the Gravy

    ¼ cup all-purpose flour or gluten-free flour blend
    4 T. vegan butter or neutral-flavored oil such as grapeseed or canola
    3 c. vegetable broth
    2 T. white or yellow miso paste, I used chickpea miso
    2 t. soy sauce or gluten-free Tamari
    ¾ teaspoon Kitchen Bouquet browning and seasoning sauce, optional (increase soy sauce to taste if not using)
    ¼ teaspoon onion powder
    ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
    8 oz. crimini or button mushrooms, sliced (optional)





Instructions
For the Potatoes

    Bring a large pot of water to boil over high heat
    Add the potatoes and cook for 5 minutes
    Add the cauliflower and cook for another 5 minutes, or until potatoes are fork-tender
    While the potatoes and cauliflower are cooking, prepare the sauce by blending the tofu, roasted garlic, nutritional yeast, and cashews in a blender until smooth.
    Drain the potatoes and cauliflower and return to the pot.
    Mash the potatoes and cauliflower, adding the sauce a little at a time. If the mixture seems to thin, allow to sit for a few minutes to thicken up.
    Season with salt and pepper to taste, and serve with gravy and sauteed greens if desired.

For the Gravy

    In a small non-stick or cast iron skillet, cook mushrooms over medium-high heat until cooked and slightly browned.
    In a small saucepan, melt the vegan butter or oil over medium-low heat.
    Sprinkle in flour and whisk to combine until smooth, and cook for 1 minute.
    Add the remaining ingredients, and whisk until slightly thickened, around 5 minutes.
    Stir in cooked mushrooms, and serve warm over potatoes.
