We are big mushroom lovers in our house. We even love them raw. I’m always ordering things at restaurants just because the mushrooms sound good. Today I’m sharing one of our favorite ways to eat mushrooms. It is totally simple, but it tastes oh so good. Earthy mushrooms sauteed in a bit of olive oil, a light touch of sweet garlic, topped with a little parsley for color and parmesan cheese. It’s delicious. Whenever I make mushrooms like this there’s usually a race to eat as much as you can before they are gone. See, we don’t fight over them. We aren’t barbaric. It’s just that you gotta hurry so you can clean out the serving bowl before anyone else does. Maybe that is barbaric. No judging.
