Mushroom Recipes

Roasted Shiitakes and Cod

Test out these hearty dishes starring mushrooms, one of the highest-ranking healing foods.

Shiitake mushroms may boost the immune system, thanks to the antiviral and antimicrobial carbohydrate lentinan. Serve them alongside Pacific cod, an environmentally friendly choice.

Shiitake Mushrooms and Sugar Snap Peas

Characteristic of Asian cuisine, the combination of brown sugar (sweet), soy sauce (salty), and sake (tangy) pairs well with the earthiness of mushrooms and the fresh taste of snow peas.

Mixed Mushroom Soup

When it comes to healing foods, mushrooms receive high marks. Oyster and shiitake may lower cholesterol, stimulate the immune system, and prevent cancer, while cremini offer selenium and a host of B vitamins.

Asparagus with Shiitakes, Shallots, and Peas

Harbingers of spring, asparagus and peas pair well with the earthy flavor of shiitakes. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Veggie Burgers

These veggie burgers get their rich, earthy flavor from mushrooms and nutty quinoa, and are topped with sharp radish sprouts and cool cucumbers. Greek yogurt is a zesty Mediterranean replacement for ketchup.

Balsamic Portobello Burgers with Bell Pepper and Goat Cheese

The sweet, complex flavors of balsamic vinegar enhance the smokiness of grilled portobellos and bell pepper, making for an extra-satisfying meatless burger.

Shiitake Fried Rice

Delicious mushrooms add meaty flavor to this classic dish.

Chicken Cacciatore with Cremini Mushrooms

The cremini mushrooms bring selenium and potassium, not to mention a wealth of B vitamins, to this dish. Pair it with a slice of thick-cut whole-grain bread or a serving of healthy brown rice.

Balsamic Mushrooms

This side dish tastes just as good at room temperature as it does hot from the stove, so there’s no need to worry if it’s ready before the rest of the meal.
