these are so easy. great for parties, friends over, or just with your meal.

dried shytake mushrooms (find them in the asian or ethnic aisle)
chopped peppers, onions, and garlic.
make sure you add the garlic very last min. so it doesn't burn.
little bit of oil. I used olive oil.

that's it.

soak the mushrooms for 30 mins while you chop and saute the veggies.
then take out the veggies, and cook the mushrooms flat side down.

you could use button mushrooms, but in my store shytakes are the same price,
and they are dried so they last forever. also, the shytake is more filling, meaty,
and a source of iron i think.
i used jalopeno's, but any sweet or spicy pepper you like works.

served with veggie burgers, this can work as my football food.
yummy!
