Celebrate Earth Day by eating Environmentally Friendly

What better way to honour our Earth than to serve a meal that is environmentally friendly!

Celebrate this Earth Day with recipes that include seasonal fruits and vegetables from your local farmer's markets. They are less likely to contain harmful pesticides and preservatives, and have not travelled thousands of miles to reach your local grocery store.

Mushrooms are grown locally year-round without the use of harsh pesticides, and are delivered fresh to your local grocery store and farmer's markets daily. They make the perfect ingredient in any Earth Day recipe. So why not try one of these environmentally friendly (and delicious) recipes, hand picked from the Mushrooms Canada Recipe Library. Enjoy!
