Makes 4-6 large portions – about 3/4 of them shown, I had to use a second baking dish
I paired with a mushroom cream sauce – was not photogenic but was really delicious.
Cream sauce ingredients:
1c sliced mushrooms – I used an “exotic mix” which was 90% baby bellas 1tbs chopped garlic 2c heavy cream 1/2c Parmesan Salt and pepper Butter
Cream sauce recipe:
1) sauté mushrooms and garlic in butter – I used several tablespoons
2) add cream
3) add cheese
s&p to taste, but I add a bit at every stage
Made enough for 4 large servings. Could definitely use less per serving or add broth to stretch it out if it’s too many calories for you
