My favourite weekend breakfast is Sautéed Mushrooms and Spinach on toast, Occasionally topped with a poached egg.

I hope you enjoy it :bigsmile: Mushrooms are my favourite vegetable
. I also add bok choy to the soup which is my second favourite veggie

I'm like a hobbit when it comes to mushrooms. Lightly sauteed with a bit of salt. Om nom.

My parents are on atkins so I just made pizza using portobello mushroom caps as the bread. It was definitely one of the better things I have ever cooked.

I grill portobellos in my grill pan (but sometimes outside). I put frozen spinach cooked with lots of garlic, top with feta and sun-dried tomatoes in oil. YUMM-O! I also make a killer mushroom Burgundy stew instead of beef. That's a Rachel Ray recipe. And it's pretty light in calories.

loooove mushrooms. They go in my salad, in stir fries, omelettes, chopped into my sloppy joe mix, sauteed with onions to have with steak or burgers, added to my favorite sliced zucchini dish (thinly slice, sauted in a bit of butter & olive oil, with fresh garlic & basil). Soups, mushroom risotto-- so many things I add mushrooms to, add flavor & bulk without a lot of calories. One of the few veggies my DH will eat!

I put mushrooms in just about everything. I just love them. Thanks for the recipe of the Hungarian mushroom soup, my husband is Hungarian, and i dont think he has ever had this one. Mushrooms are a good filler for any meal. I use them alot in lasagna's , speghetti sauce, with eggs, stews as a base for pizza,grilled on the bbq,in stir frys . I also like them as a filler in hamburgers, and they taste awesome.

Saute mushrooms, stir in marinara, top with parmesean or goat cheese...yum yum yum! Its a low calorie satisfying meal reminiscent of pasta, but heartier.

callsitlikeiseeit

ive never met a mushroom i didnt like.

i mince them and add them (and other veggies) to meatloaf and meatballs, eat them raw in salad, stuffed, cooked with other veg, add them to soups and stews, make portobello burgers, whatever.

Mushroms are awesome. Theyre going in my spicy orange pork stirfry toinight.

Just recently I grilled some portabello caps (in my stovetop grill pan) with a bit of olive oil and salt and served them on top of grilled chicken breasts spread with a bit of garlic aioli. So good! Would have been good on a bun too.

We saute small ones and add them to grilled steak or chicken tacos along with sauted onions and peppers.

+1 for mushroom soup! We also fry them with potatoes. This dish is not very healthy though

I have mushrooms in my omelet every morning. My 13 year old likes to sautee the giant portobello caps and then break an egg into them, cover, and eat when the white is set and the yolk opaque but still runny.

Mushrooms are awesome. They have tons of minerals and micronutrients and many are believed to have medicinal properties, ( might be woo and broscience...harmless woo and broscience so long as you aren't avoiding your scientific health and medicine!) and they are great for weight loss purposes because they are so substantial for so few calories....

I, like many of you, add mushrooms to everything I can! One of my favorite lighter meals is to take about a cup each of shredded rotisserie chicken, sliced mushrooms and sliced Vidalia (or other sweet onion) and saute in olive oil until hot, adding a light touch of sea salt and pepper. Be careful when sauteing with olive oil, though, as 'shrooms will soak up a lot of it because they're so porous. Thanks for all the ideas and recipes, friends!

HeySwoleSister

They do soak up the oil! I find they produce enough moisture on their own, though, just put them in a hot nonstick skillet and cover...add a couple of drops of water if they are on the dry side...you end up with that nice sauteed mushroom texture without soaking up all your fats.
