Portobello Mushrooms
Portobello Mushroom Fajitas
Grilled or roasted portobello mushrooms have a meat like texture and flavor. I like to saute the portobellos in a red wine, like a burgundy--it tastes extraordinary! 2 jumbo portobello mushrooms, trimmed, rinsed and patted dry 1/4 C Burgundy wine (plus a bit more to drink as you cook)!Portobello Mushroom Salad
4 portobello mushroom caps, wiped clean and very thinly sliced
4 ribs celery and their green tops, thinly sliced on an angle
Handful flat-leaf parsley, picked of stems but left whole
1 lemon (Heads up: you'll need lemon zest for the pesto later, so zest and reserve before you cut this lemon to juice it for this salad.)
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, eyeball it
Coarse salt and black pepper
A couple of handfuls shaved Parmiginao-Reggiano
Arrange the mushrooms and celery on a platter and scatter the parsley leaves around. Squeeze the lemon juice evenly over the platter then liberally drizzle the salad with extra-virgin olive oil, about 3 tablespoons. Season the salad with salt and lots of black pepper and toss with your finger tips to combine.

Asparagus and Portobello Farfalle
This pasta dish is light, yet satisfying. The liquid from the cooked portobello mushrooms adds a rich flavor to the pasta and goes well with the crisp spring asparagus. 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil 2 cloves garlic, minced 1 1/2 cups sliced portobello mushrooms 1/3 cup chicken or vegetable broth 1/4 C red wine 3/4 pound (dry) farfalle (bowtie) pasta 1 bunch asparagus 1/2 cup crumbled goat cheese 2 tablespoons chopped parsley salt and pepper to taste 1/3 cup toasted pine nuts Heat olive oil in a saute pan and cook garlic and sliced mushrooms over medium-low heat until mushrooms are tender, 5–10 minutes.Heart Healthy Alfredo Sauce
Can there really be such a thing? There are so many options today for adapting even the most unhealthy, fatty foods, to something that is good for us. Most commonly, Alfredo Sauce has about 56 grams of fat, nearly all of the saturated kind, and about 1500 calories per 1/4 cup serving.Decadent Salad
