Herb and Garlic Roasted Mushrooms

Mushrooms add a hearty, meaty texture to any dish, and this recipe combines two delicious varieties sautéed with garlic for maximum flavor! Combining mushrooms in a single dish also amps up the nutritional value considerably. Shiitake mushrooms are rich in vitamin D, and baby portobellos (also known as cremini mushrooms) are full of powerful B-vitamins that support cognitive functioning. You can also use white button mushrooms or experiment with more exotic varieties your local market has to offer. Either way.. you can’t go wrong.
