Now it wouldn’t be Vegan MoFo without a vegan getting all wild and crazy and throwing all the vegan staples – hummus, tofu and pesto – into a single dish, would it? It’s just mad enough to work and by joves, work it does!

Hummus gives a lovely earthy texture and flavour whilst tofu and cheeze balance it out with fluffy creaminess.  Pesto joins the party with a fresh herb flavour and chilli adds little sparks of interest throughout.

On top of all that, these snazzy guys are a cinch to make and you could even pre-make and refrigerate and then just pop them into the oven when your friends arrive for your fabulous dinner party.  Or even a brunch party!

    This sounds like such a delicious combination of flavours! I’ve been ambivalent about stuffed mushrooms in the past as recipes I’ve tried have been a bit boring.

    These sound so good! I should not be looking at food right after eating lunch, because I’m hungry all over again. 🙂

    Oh yum! I love that you used Notzarella! These looks like little cups of heaven, my three favorites-basil, tofu, and mushrooms!
