Looks like a good recipe but one suggestion, you might want to use veggie stock instead of chicken if you want to keep it a completely meatless. Bon appetit!

I agree. There is a difference between a stroganoff that does not contain meat and a vegetarian stroganoff. Hence the name "meatless", I suppose, rather than "vegetarian". The people I cook for would call this a side dish, not the main meal.

We don't speak vegetarian in our household. If I told my husband I wanted to make a vegetarian meal, he would probably head out to the nearest restaurant......without me.

LOL!

@novamc1, Ditto. We were raised dedicated carnivores. My Mama would have washed out my mouth with lard if I had ever used a word like vegetarian! Thanks for the laugh -- you made my day!

Thanks for your response NOVAMC. I am a vegetarian so it always makes me chuckle when I read meatless and then see an ingredient like chicken stock. I think that your explanation makes complete sense though.

Regardless, I think think this looks like a yummy recipe--combined with a salad and wine, sounds like a great winter meal!

PS. I get the whole vegetarian question--I was raised in an carniverous home and my husband was raised in Nebraska but is also now a vegetarian! It is even more complicated when we explain that most of the time we are vegans and only eat a little bit of dairy...leaves some folks scratching their heads...

Take care.
