Vegan Tofu and Mushroom Dumplings - Munchmeals by Janet (2024)

These Vegan Tofu and Mushroom Dumplings are a comforting, delicious meal that are simple to put together and so fun to make. Stuffed with a super flavorful and satisfying mix of tofu and mushrooms, they are sure to become a favorite!

Once you try making these the first time, you’ll quickly see how fun and easy making these dumplings are! Plus, the possibilities are really endless. There are so many methods to cook them as well. They can be steamed, sauteed, or shallow/deep fried. For these dumplings, I’ve used the Nasoya Vegan Wonton wrappers, available in the refrigerated section of the grocery store.

You can alternatively make them home-made, which is fun too! They take more time to do that of course, and this is my short-cut way to have delicious dumplings in no-time. Another time-saver happens when you’re setting up your “filling station”, as I like to call it. Keeping your wrappers, your stuffing, and a small bowl of water in front of you will help you fly through these.

What we love about these Vegan Tofu and Mushroom Dumplings

• These dumplings have a delicious SAUCE inside and more to dip with
• This is total COMFORT FOOD and will leave you so satisfied
• They’re VERSATILE, so make some spicy and others not! Or, switch out the vegetable in half of the batch

How these Vegan Tofu and Mushroom Dumplings come together

These are so simple and you can be super efficient when making this dish. Just follow the easy steps below, and these will be ready and in your mouth ASAP. That’s how all dumplings should be, right? Can you tell I love dumplings yet?

1. Crumble tofu in a pan and add chopped mushrooms and seasonings.
2. Stir together the sauce in a bowl, and add a bit to the tofu – mushroom mixture.
3. Stuff 1 tbsp of the mixture into a dumpling wrapper, wet two of the sides of the wrapper with a bit of water, fold over.
4. Repeat with the rest of the tofu – mushroom mixture.
5. Steam them or cook in a large pan with a small amount of water at the bottom, covered, until wrapper is cooked through.

That’s it!!

While we made these dumplings, we also stuffed other wonton wrappers with a tasty avocado filling, and shallow fried them for a crispy wonton. You know those avocado eggrolls at some restaurants? These are a fun home-made version, and I’ll be sharing those soon!
