A simple Vegan Dinner 30 Minute Meal Dinner idea is this Asian carrot, cabbage and mushrooms recipe. It has a lovely flavor, and with the variety of cabbage, carrots, and mushroom flavors, it truly absorbs soy sauce and other seasonings. We ate it for days. =)
I made a few of these fried cabbage recipes. Check them out here, but both have meat in them: FRIED CABBAGE ASPARAGUS AND BACON RECIPE and DAIRY FREE KIELBASA, CABBAGE, AND CARROTS ONE POT DINNER RECIPE

Cabbage and Mushrooms Recipe Instructions
Below are the step-by-step instructions for making this recipe. Note that this recipe is without meat, but you can add it. See variations for details on how to add meat.
Prep and cut the vegetables and set them aside. Measure out the seasoning.
First, heat the large skillet. Then, add olive oil (Affiliate Link), garlic, and red pepper flakes to a heated pan. Cook until heated through but not browned.
Add mushrooms and cook for 5-7 minutes to help reduce the size of the sliced mushroom.
Now, add the thinly sliced yellow pepper, and cook for 2 minutes.
Add a splash of white cooking white (optional) or water to deglaze the pan. Cook for 2 minutes to reduce.
Now, add shredded cabbage, shredded carrots, soy sauce, black pepper, and paprika, then stir and cover for 10-15 minutes on medium-low heat.
Add a splash more soy sauce near the end if you want it. Stir evenly for a few minutes.
Optional: Add the 1 lb 1-inch cut cooked meat to the dish until warm. Then, serve and enjoy!
Variations
There are a few things you can do to enhance this recipe.
- Spicy - add more red pepper flakes while cooking.
- Add cooked protein - add 1 lb of the following: Cooked sausage, cooked Kielbasa, ground cooked Tofu, Ground beef, canned Tuna, cooked Chicken breast, and cooked Chicken thighs.
- Sesame oil - add sesame oil in the same amount as olive oil (Affiliate Link).
- Shiitake Mushrooms - if you want, you can swap out the button mushroom for shiitake mushrooms for a more earthy flavor.
- Oyster Mushrooms - you can substitute button mushrooms with oyster mushrooms.
- Napa cabbage - I used green cabbage, but Napa cabbage would work as well. If you have Napa cabbage, you will need to shred it yourself.
Equipment
Equipment can have a big impact on how a recipe turns out. This recipe is super easy to make because it is a one-pan dish.
Reveal:
Here is the final finished vegan dish. It was a success, and we ate it for a few days. Yum!
Storage
After the dish is cooked, it can be stored in an airtight container for 3 days. You can easily reheat it in the microwave.
I do not recommend freezing after the dish is cooked.
Top tip
Do not let the pan get too hot; it will burn the garlic, and you will need to start over.
