Vegan Mushroom Garlic Parmesan Noodles
Simple and delicious, these Vegan Mushroom Garlic Parmesan Noodles are a delicious mix of angel hair pasta, sliced mushrooms, fresh garlic and parmesan.
There are lots of foods out there that we all ate before going vegan that we look back on fondly.
Most of mine include copious amounts of cheese.
But luckily, there are TONS of vegan alternatives that really do taste like the real thing.
One of those things is Vegan Parmesan. I’m not talking about nutritional yeast and cashews blended up. (I’ve tried that recipe and it tastes nothing like parmesan).
My go-to vegan parmesan is from GoVeggie. It’s cheap and it tastes good. And it doesn’t have that overly salty flavor that some other brands I have tried have.
I used to only be able to find it at Whole Foods, but it started popping up at my regular grocery stores the last couple months – yay, vegan win!
You can also get it online here.
Anyways, back to what we’re using this amazing parmesan for. This recipe is inspired by something I used to order at Yard House.
And while Yard House is one of my favorite places to eat out at because of all of their vegan options, this dish is unfortunately not one of them. BUT, with a few easy vegan swaps I was able to recreate it super easily.
Vegan butter, garlic, sliced mushrooms, “chicken” broth, and parmesan are mixed in with angel hair pasta and then topped with fresh green onion slices.
This recipes takes just 15 minutes from start to finish and is a comforting dish that will have you coming back for more.

I LOVE this recipe! I make this a few times a month and its even great the next day.
Regarding the Go Veggie Parmesan… one has a blue label, the other has a green label. Which are you using in this recipe? I read a bunch of reviews that said this ‘cheese’ clumps & you have to break it up with a knife to use it. Some say it has such a strong, repulsive odor they couldn’t even eat what they put it on! …and they threw the bottle out! One comment said that before putting the bottle in the fridge after opening, to put it in a zip-lock freezer bag to prevent every thing in the fridge from stinking like this ‘cheese’. Some comments said the ingredients had changed & that it now contains coconut… but Amazon had not updated it’s ingredient list!!
GoVeggie went off the market for the past year (at least in my area). I finally found the new formula at my grocery store this weekend, but haven’t tested it out. I had no issues with their old formula and really liked the taste, so I’m hoping for the best from the new one.
Very good! I agree with Rayne. It definitely doesn’t hurt to double the mushrooms. I would also recommend to use the brand of Chiken Broth base suggested in the recipe because the Sprouts equivalent took a long time and wasn’t as good!
This is one of new favorite recipes. My whole family loves it. I add a couple of tablespoons of oat flour to the buttery mushrooms before I add the broth, and this makes the sauce more like a gravy. It’s absolutely creamy and delicious! I also add peas and kale and double the mushrooms (which I quarter rather than slice) for a heartier dish.
Yum! Those all sound like great additions!
Yummy. So good. My husband ate 3 servings of it. Definitely will make it again
