Vegan Sautéed Zucchini and Mushrooms

Quick, simple, and full of earthy flavor—this Vegan Sautéed Zucchini and Mushrooms is the kind of side dish you’ll want to make on repeat. It’s buttery, garlicky, and pairs perfectly with pasta, rice, or even on toast!

Ingredients

  • 2 medium zucchinis, sliced into rounds

  • 1 cup mushrooms, sliced

  • 2 tbsp olive oil (or vegan butter for extra richness)

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped

  • Salt & black pepper, to taste

  • A squeeze of lemon juice (optional, for brightness)

‍ Instructions

  1. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

  2. Add garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.

  3. Toss in zucchini and mushrooms. Cook for 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden and slightly tender.

  4. Season with salt, pepper, and a squeeze of lemon juice.

  5. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve warm.

Tips

  • For extra flavor, sprinkle with red pepper flakes or nutritional yeast.

  • Make it a full meal: serve over pasta or grain bowls.

  • Don’t overcrowd the pan—this helps the veggies brown instead of steam.

✨ A wholesome, plant-based dish that proves simple flavors can be absolutely magical.
