Vegan Garlic Mushrooms Cauliflower Skillet

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Cauliflower
   Steam or blanch the cauliflower florets for 3-4 minutes until just tender. Drain and set aside.
2. Sauté Aromatics
   Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic, cooking for 2-3 minutes until softened and fragrant.
3. Cook the Mushrooms
   Stir in the sliced mushrooms and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they release their moisture and turn golden brown.
4. Season with Herbs
   Sprinkle thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper over the mushrooms. Mix well to evenly coat them with the herbs.
5. Deglaze the Skillet
   Pour in the vegetable broth, stirring to deglaze the pan and incorporate any browned bits. Simmer for 1-2 minutes.
6. Combine with Cauliflower
   Add the steamed cauliflower to the skillet and stir to mix it with the mushrooms and seasonings. Cook for 5-7 minutes, letting the flavors meld.
7. Optional Nutritional Yeast
   Sprinkle the nutritional yeast over the mixture for a cheesy flavor, stirring to combine.
8. Final Seasoning
   Taste the dish and adjust salt and pepper as needed.
9. Garnish and Serve
   Top with fresh parsley for added color and a burst of freshness. Serve warm as a main or side dish.
