Date: 12/21/12 4:57 PM Karla's mushroom recipe found here is my project for the day.
Assembly - pretty easy, though I would have mixed all the ingredients and then added the mushrooms. Much easier to melt the butter (had to look up how much a "stick" is again. How hard is it to write in cups, people?) and bullion cubes.
Seeing how quickly they cook down, I could have used my crock pot, I think.
One hour in - the house smells pretty amazing!

Starting to think we might not need a main dish with these things... ------ http://bgballroom.wordpress.com to follow the progress on my next ballgown. |

Date: 12/21/12 11:06 PM This sounds soooo good!
I wonder if one could use brown (crimini) mushrooms as well (or a blend)? I love button mushrooms but I find brown mushrooms have even more taste.
I am going to try this... perhaps even in my crock pot.  |

I have a feeling the bread and salad (do we have to have salad?) might be the way to go. But when DD the chef gets here, she may have plans for all that fantastic looking liquid. Good luck with that, honey! Mom and Dad may have scarfed it all by then!  ------ http://bgballroom.wordpress.com to follow the progress on my next ballgown. |
