Together, we’ve been asking vegetarian food brand, Morningstar Farms, to ditch the dairy and eggs—starting with their Garden Veggie Burger. They’re responding!
Morningstar just veganized three of their products—the Buffalo Wings, Buffalo Chik Patties, and Chik’n Nuggets!
Our campaign has garnered nearly 7,000 petition signatures, hundreds of comments on Morningstar’s social media pages, and over a thousand emails asking them to make the change—from dedicated activists, like you!
This change by Morningstar Farms will remove an enormous amount of animal products from the supply chain every year—making a big difference for animals.
Thank you for taking action to veganize Morningstar’s products! This huge step wouldn’t have happened without your dedication!
Now, let’s keep the momentum going! Use our pre-written email to thank Morningstar and request that the Garden Veggie Burger—sold at Burger King—be next on the list to veganize!
Mushroom Parmesan Pasta Bake (1-pan, nut-free, with soy-free and gluten-free options)
Cozy, hearty spinach cheese stuffed Mushroom Parmesan, is a one-pan dinner that your family is going to love! Even the orzo pasta bakes up in the pan with the cheesy mushrooms and marinara sauce! 1 pan, 1 baking Step!
I wanted to make a simple mushroom parmesan pasta bake, because I had plenty of mushrooms on hand. And I wanted to reduce the pans and time in the kitchen. Enter this cozy 1 Pan Orzo bake!
The mushrooms are stuffed with this delicious spinach-tofu-cheese mixture that I often use to make stuffed shells, then I top it with a cruncy breadcrumb topping and pair it with a pasta, I use orzo, but other shapes will work too! The pasta and the sauce at the bottom, topped with cheesy stuffed mushrooms, and a crisp breadcrumb topping. Everything cooks in just one pan and one baking step!
The prep is very simple. Just make your spinach-tofu-cheese mixture by adding everything to a bowl and mixing it. Prep your mushrooms by removing the stems, and that’s it!
It’s an easy recipe that’s pretty flexible, too. You can add some veggie grounds or vegan ground meat substitute in with the pasta sauce to add extra protein to the meal. The recipe is already nut-free, and it’s easy to make soy-free and gluten-free, too.
You want to use about two- to three-inch mushrooms. Larger mushrooms take longer to cook, and pasta will overcook in that much time, so medium-sized works best here. I also use the mushroom stems in the recipe, so don’t discard them. Just trim away the tough end of the stem and discard that, but save the rest of the stem to chop up into the pasta sauce.
I paired this mushroom parmesan with orzo pasta, because it cooks up really easily in the baking dish and it works out just amazing. You can add a different pasta of choice, as well, just bake a few minutes longer until the pasta is cooked to preference.
