Guest guest Posted March 3, 2012 Report Share Posted March 3, 2012 Just wanted to chime in to say you're so right, ew! Mushrooms have significant health benefits, not the least of which is cancer-fighting attributes. Even if someone doesn't like them, they may find a way to disguise them in soups, spaghetti sauces, etc., and still reap the benefits!

The container does not become part of your pie plate set up. You use the mushroom trays instead of the pie plates. I have two in my kitchen window just now and another two on the kitchen counter, with sunflower and pea shoots in different stages of growth. ew .. Image removed by sender.

Guest guest Posted March 3, 2012 Report Share Posted March 3, 2012 Thea, my husband wouldn't touch a mushroom in any form except liquified in a Vitamixed smoothie. He has learned of the health benefits of mushrooms, and that's the only way he will ingest them. I, on the other hand, love fresh raw mushrooms in a salad. I missed the discussion on growing them - will have to backtrack so I can determine how I can do that!

Guest guest Posted March 3, 2012 Report Share Posted March 3, 2012 My husband wasn't keen on them either but eats them now in various dishes where their mushroom-ness (new word, LOL) is less apparent. He is aware of the health benefits too and that helps his decision to eat them. I don't mind them raw but definitely like them in a crockpot dish of some sort or cooked in another way.

Guest guest Posted March 3, 2012 Report Share Posted March 3, 2012 And let's don't forget mushrooms on the Barbee. ew Re: Mushrooms Nice on salad and wonderful cooked in onions and oil with a steak from the grill. Carolyn Wilkerson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 3, 2012 Report Share Posted March 3, 2012 Years ago I had a recipe for mushrooms filled with white wine & butter, baked, and served on the requisite toast point. The recipe came from a book called " With a Jug of Wine " , and I wish I had it. It belonged to my neighbor and we've lost touch. I'm not positive about the recipe, but it was really, really good. They certainly could be done on the barbie!

Guest guest Posted March 3, 2012 Report Share Posted March 3, 2012 Maybe you can find something similar on Food Network or in Cooks.com or something like that. Put in mushrooms and wine and see what comes up. Carolyn Wilkerson  ________________________________ To: " sproutpeople " <sproutpeople > Sent: Saturday, March 3, 2012 10:30 PM Subject: Re: Mushrooms  Years ago I had a recipe for mushrooms filled with white wine & butter, baked, and served on the requisite toast point.
