  • 12 oz. cremini or baby portobella mushrooms sliced
  • 2 tbsp all-purpose flour

  • Meanwhile, cook orzo according to package directions until barely al dente in salted water, then drain. While potatoes and orzo cook, preheat a very large pan or pot on medium heat. Add onion, plant-based butter, remaining 1 tsp olive oil, and Sparkle Salt. Stir, cook 5 to 6 min on medium to medium-low. Add mushrooms, stir, cook 4 to 6 min until softened and beginning to brown.
  • Add all-purpose flour, sage and garlic. Stir, add Mushroom Brainiac and water. Stir, cover and bring to gentle simmer. Let cook 4 to 5 min at low simmer. Add heavy cream, parsley, baby spinach, orzo, potatoes, and optional red chili flakes and lemon juice. Stir and cook another 1 to 2 min, then serve.
