I'm a huge fan of mushrooms, because of the taste and their health benefits. They are a good source of protein as well as antioxidants such as selenium, and vitamins as vitamin B12.
They are also cholesterol free and very low in fat, so it's a good point in you are on a diet or worried about your weight.
If you choose white mushrooms for your recipe, they are also a good source of vitamin D.
It's very important that you cook mushrooms throroughly, in order to breakdown small amounts of natural toxins that they can have and their taste is better after cooking.
You can enjoy this recipe as an appetizer or as a side for a main dish, it's very easy to prepare and also you don't need too much ingredients to make it.
