Still ‘Shroomin’

A while back I wrote about my wacky love of fungus (see the blog post here). What I wrote then is still true today; I freakin’ love mushrooms. 

I know not everyone does but I encourage the haters to try mushrooms in this hearty appetizer. You will be swayed! Who could not love these fungi sautéed in garlic and butter then topped with cheese? You would have to be practically dead to not like them.  This dish pairs well with a nice salad (like one of these) for an easy weekday lunch or light dinner. It’s a meatless way to have a hearty meal.
