Anna on 2026-04-23 (5 stars): Currently pregnant and in the midst of morning sickness, I am for some reason craving gravy and mashed potatoes haha! Successfully just made this!! I didn't have dijon mustard or onion powder, and only had 1/2 of the nutritional yeast on hand but it still came out delicious! Thank you for this recipe :)

Ian Wilson on 2026-04-10 (4 stars): Looking for a vegan recipe for a guest who doesn't like the bits of onion in my usual one. Made one with all your ingredients (didn't mention the onion powder!) but I made a roux - so added oil which does equal more calories - with the flour as it always improves the flavour. Certainly was a success.
Ashley on 2026-04-09 (5 stars): This gravy is exactly as it says easy!!! And it’s delicious I made it as is and it’s wonderful but also a great base if you want to try different variations! I made it again tonight and added a little poultry seasoning( that I have no other use for but had for a different gravy recipe which was not a good one lol) but it turned out really delicious! I loved that it’s all ingredients that I normally always have on hand and it’s ready so quickly!
Andi on 2026-03-23 (5 stars): Nora, I’ve used your recipes for YEARS! Tonight, I’ve used this one as an addition to a wonderful Vegan meal. It was a huge hit! This will be what I use from now on! Thank you for sharing your recipes through these years!
Bea on 2026-02-15 (5 stars): This gravy lived up to its name! Easy enough for this inexperienced cook. Really delicious! Thanks for understanding that when you want gravy you want it now!
Julie Hetrick on 2026-01-17 (5 stars): Quick, easy, and delicious!
Gord Lockwood on 2026-01-16 (5 stars): Love this vegan gravy recipe! 5 minutes and so good! Thanks!
SJ on 2026-01-03 (5 stars): I served this gravy one year at Christmas. My mother-in-law, who was revered by our family for her classic Southern cooking (vegan and oil-free did not enter her mind, much less her kitchen), said it was the best gravy she had ever had. Later she called for the recipe, which she kept on her fridge and made several times in her last years. I don’t know how you could have a better endorsement for a gravy recipe. Thank you!
Susie V Kaufman on 2026-01-01 (5 stars): HAPPY NEW YEAR, KATHY!
In a few days, after I get my small amount of food stamps, I'll head down the hill to grab those ingredients I need. SO looking forward to it!
Kathy on 2026-01-01 (5 stars): I doubt I will ever buy any kind of gravy again - this is so easy and delicious! I hope everyone will give this recipe a try.
