Oh, sure, you don't need meat at all, I sometimes just make a hearty mushroom sauce, and it's great. Put whatever you want in it, there are no rules. Yellow/orange/red peppers are nice. I hate green peppers, and onions, but if you like them, go nuts, just don't invite me for dinner. Some people put lots of veggies in, but they puree them first, so they dissolve better (and the kids will eat it without knowing, too, I suppose). Experimenting is half the fun of cooking. The other half is eating it.

Consider meat alternatives. You can even get away with tofu. Anything goes, it’s a sauce…

Yeah yo for sure can, though you probably don’t need to simmer for as long with everything combined if it’s just mushrooms. I would do a variety for a bigger range of umami flavour, (et 3:1 cremini:shitake), then add a bit of msg, it’ll hit hard. MSG optional but it’ll hit hard. I think you can also fake mallard reaction (browning meat) but I don’t know how bc I’m not vegan. Worcestershire also could help, but idk if it’s vegan

I find kidney or garbanzo beans a good substitute.
