Mushroom Shawarma

This mushroom shawarma is so tasty and satisfying. It’s a great alternative to meat shawarma for those who are wishing to bring more healing vegetables into their diet. Served alongside a creamy zucchini-cashew sauce and fresh lettuce, tomatoes, cucumber, and herbs, all wrapped up in red lentil tortillas, this recipe is bursting with flavor. It’s also gluten-free, dairy-free, and oil-free.

Mushrooms contain hundreds of undiscovered phytochemical compounds, many of which are detoxifying for the liver. Mushrooms also reduce fungus, bacteria, and viruses in the intestinal tract, allowing for cleaner nutrients and cleaner blood to arrive in the liver.
