First post here. Been vegan for a few days now and man am I loving the cooking experience! It's making me a better chef and I'm enjoying experimenting with foods. Here is the recipe for these vegan gyros I made last night:

Need:

  • Vegan gyro bread (I bought mine at a local international farmer's market)
  • Hummus
  • Spinach
  • Pickled red onion
  • Oyster mushrooms
  • Vegan Worcestershire sauce
  • Spices: Salt, Ground coriander, cayenne, garlic powder, ancho chile powder, white pepper, sugar

What to do:

  • Wash your oyster mushrooms and pull them apart into strips with your hands, kind of shredding them.
  • Add olive oil into a pan on medium heat and add your mushrooms. Give them a good stir to let them toast a bit.
  • Add in your spices, excluding the sugar. Season with your heart!! I like mine very salty and spicy. Stir so that everything is coated.
  • Add in Worcestershire sauce. Measure with your heart. Let this simmer down for a while before adding a pinch of sugar for some sweetness.
  • Once the liquid is gone and the mushrooms have crisped up a bit, assemble your gyros in this order: hummus, spinach, mushrooms, pickled red onion.

These are so good and greasy and salty while also being super filling and satisfying. I had mine with rice but use whatever side you like!!

    Hello. Gimme.

    Instead of or in addition to hummus, you might try tahini dressing and red hot sauce. It’s an epic combination.
