Put These in Your Mouth- Portobello Mushrooms

Have you tried cooking portobello mushrooms?  They are the large mature mushrooms that contain vitamins B and D, phosphorous, potassium, sodium and anti-cancer properties.  I love them because they are juicy, satisfying and can be substituted for meat easily.

If you're new to portobellos, give this spicy recipe a try.  You can almost always find portobelllos at the farmers market.  Savor!

To make marinade, combine in a jar and shake until mixed:

1 minced garlic clove
1 teaspoon tumeric
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon ground mustard powder
1/2 teaspoon ginger powder
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 tablespoons honey (or brown sugar)
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1/4 cup rice vinegar

1 tablespoon olive oil

Place two large portobello heads and 1 chopped onion in a plastic sealable container.  Pour marinade over mushrooms.  Let marinate 30 minutes, shake once or twice while marinating.

Heat oven to 425F. Bake mushrooms and onions in a glass pan until mushrooms are soft but browned outside.  Serve with your favorite rice (or grain) and vegetables.
