Guest Post: Sautéed Mushrooms with Rapini

It’s important to have a variety of side dishes in your arsenal for whipping up on a weeknight. This side is one of my favourites to whip up to go alongside a weeknight barbecue. I always have mushrooms in my fridge and I’ve always loved this combination of mushrooms and rapini, whether stirred into a pasta, a soup or on their own. Call me crazy, but this could even work as a burger topping!

I love the play between the umami of the mushrooms and the bitter bite of the rapini and it works perfectly as a quick side dish. I finish mine off with a drizzle of sesame oil, but this can be optional!

Guest Post: Sautéed Mushrooms for the Perfect Steak

Recipe and photo by AngryBBQ.com

To me the perfect steak must have some sides and sautéed mushrooms is our go to at AngryBBQ.com. The great thing about sautéed mushrooms is how easy and quick they are to make. Follow this step by step recipe to take your next steak dinner to another level.

You really can’t go wrong with serving mushrooms as a side. Different types of mushrooms offer different nutritional benefits; but for the most part mushrooms in general are a good source of antioxidants, beta glucan, B-vitamins, copper, and potassium.

Guest Post: Spicy Mushroom Potstickers

Recipe by Carole Nelson Brown of The Yum Yum Factor

I love nothing more than a great potsticker and if you buy the dumpling wrappers from the store, they are super quick and easy to make. You have the option to make my tried and true, partially whole wheat wrappers from scratch, if you are up for a bit of a challenge or you can just buy premade wrappers from the store. Look for round wrappers that are about 3” in diameter as any smaller and they get finicky to work with.

Pulsed mushrooms provide a great, meaty texture and as we all know, mushrooms are umami bombs that can stand up to a bit of spice. Once you start using Gochujang, you will want to start putting this Korean fermented red chili paste, in everything – it’s savoury, sweet and spicy all at the same time. I use white button or crimini mushrooms and pulse them in the food processor until they are coarsely chopped – just a few pulses will do it.
