Portobello mushrooms are the vessel for deliciousness in this recipe, while also bringing high nutritional value to the table. They are rich in B vitamins like riboflavin and niacin, full of the brain healthy mineral selenium, in addition to having anti-inflammatory properties. Portobello mushrooms are also full of umami, which lends to their remarkable ability to mimic the flavors of meat. They are also low in carbohydrates and high in dietary fiber, making them a perfect addition to any keto meal plan, especially one that is plant-based.
The filling for this BBQ Beyond Meat Stuffed Portobellos recipe is a tasty mixture of Beyond Meat ground “beef” with sauteed onions and bell pepper, finished off simply with some salt, pepper, and keto-friendly BBQ sauce. If you are vegan, make sure you find a vegan-friendly BBQ sauce as well. You would be surprised how many brands have animal products in them.
The vegan and keto-friendly BBQ sauce thickens up nicely after a few minutes on the stove, making the Beyond Meat mixture thick, saucy, and full of flavor, with a bit of crunch from perfectly cooked bell peppers. Don’t forget a healthy portion of vegan shredded mozzarella cheese to give this recipe some extra creaminess. If you are okay with dairy products, feel free to use real cheese! If you are plant-based, we recommend Violife brand.
