Shrooms

A bit of happy news for the foodies out there: mushrooms are very good for you.

I am huge mushroom fan, and throw them into meals whenever possible. I like them grilled, filleted like a burger, tossed with butter and garlic, fried dipped in blue cheese, baked with herbs and fresh chopped in eggs, pizza or salad. They're packed with antioxidants, B vitamins, minerals and phytonutrients (those are good for you too). The white buttons are the most sold in the US but varieties like chanterelles, oysters, portobello and shiitakes have even more nutrients and flavor.

SHROOMS - who knew fungi could be so good for you?
