Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
Add diced onions and minced garlic, sauté until the onions become translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
Stir in the carrots, celery, and potatoes, cooking for an additional 5 minutes until they start to soften.
Add the sliced cremini mushrooms and cook until they release their moisture and are slightly browned, about 5 minutes.
Dissolve the vegan chicken-flavored bouillon cube in the vegetable broth, then pour the broth into the pot with the vegetables.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the non-dairy milk and all-purpose flour until smooth.
Slowly pour the milk-flour mixture into the pot, stirring constantly to prevent lumps.
Add in the frozen peas, dried thyme, sage, rosemary, salt, and black pepper.
Bring the mixture to a simmer, stirring often, until the sauce thickens and the vegetables are tender, about 15-20 minutes.
Taste and adjust seasoning as needed before using this filling in your favorite vegan pie crust.
