Instructions:

1. ⁠ Preheat oven to 400F and line 2 baking trays with parchment paper.⁠

6. Heat a medium-sized saucepan to medium heat and add olive oil/chopped onion. Cook until onions are translucent.⁠

7. Add your Edward & Sons Unseasoned Jackfruit Pieces and cook for 1-2 minutes. Add ¾ cup vegetable broth and let simmer for 5-10 minutes.

8. Add your mushroom gravy to onion/jackfruit mixture and stir to combine. ⁠

9. Assemble your vegan poutine – to an oven-safe casserole pan, add your baked potatoes, and top with vegan mushroom gravy.

10. Add shredded vegan mozzarella cheese on top and broil for 2-3 minutes.

11. Top with extra gravy and chopped fresh parsley.
