- 2 cups vegan chicken-style strips soy or seitan-based
- 3 cups broccoli florets fresh or frozen, we don’t judge
- 1 small onion diced
- 2 garlic cloves minced
- 1 cup canned coconut milk full-fat
- ½ cup nutritional yeast cheesy goddess vibes
- ½ tsp black pepper
- ¾ tsp salt
- ½ tsp onion powder
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ¼ tsp paprika
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- Optional: 1 tbsp vegan cream cheese for extra richness
Add oil, onion, and garlic to the crockpot. Sauté if your model allows (if not, just dump and move on).
Toss in vegan chicken strips and broccoli florets.
In a separate bowl, mix coconut milk, nutritional yeast, salt, pepper, paprika, and both powders.
Pour the creamy mix over everything in the pot. Stir until it’s a big, beautiful mess.
Cover and cook on low for 4 hours or high for 2.
Stir halfway through to check if it’s still fabulous (it is).
Top with optional cream cheese just before serving.
