This gravy was excellent! Very easy and it pleased my table full of omnitarians.

Hubby and I were impressed with this great tasting gravy on our left over mashed potatoes! I changed the serving size to 4 and sauted 1 cup of chopped button mushrooms with olive oil added and a splash of white wine before adding the rest of the ingredients. I also added about 1/2 cup of water in the end as we wanted a thinner gravy but it didn't compromise the flavor at all. It was so good, we wanted seconds but ran out of potatoes so will keep the rest of the gravy for another meal this week. Thanks Emily for this great recipe, it's printed and is a keeper!

i made this gravy for my meat-eating family for thanksgiving and they loved it! i used a sweet onion and it gave it a great flavor, i didnt use the yeast in it but it thickened up just fine with corn-starch, this is a recipe i plan on making for any occasion i can make it :-D

Yum, loved it! I used white wine which probably wasn't as nice as red in this - but still fantastic. I used slightly more nutritional yeast, but otherwise as written. My only change to this recipe would be that I don't think it serves 10! Could just be me, a huge vegan gravy lover, but I'd say more like 4 - it's so good you just want more & more.
