These are some of our favorite recipes, mostly from Cooking Light, but we tend to edit portions and ingredients
that suit our taste buds (e.g. when a recipe calls for 1 minced garlic clove, we use about 4 :) ).
Other recipes are passed down from family and friends.

Sauteed Butter-Thyme Mushrooms

In less than 20 minutes, this can be your new favorite accompaniment to your favorite main dish. We used presliced cremini mushrooms to give us a headstart to meal prep and added some fresh thyme and a few splashes of white wine to amp up the flavor.
Jim and I agreed that these make an excellent topper on a protein (like steak), but it was lacking just as a side.


Yield: Serves 4 (serving size: 1/2 cup)
Total: 17 Minutes
Ingredients:

1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon canola oil
1/4 cup finely chopped shallots
3/8 teaspoon salt
2 (8-ounce) packages presliced cremini mushrooms
1/3 cup dry white wine
4 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme

Preparation:
Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add oil and shallots; cook 1 minute or until tender. Add salt and mushrooms to pan; cook 13 minutes or until mushrooms are brown and liquid evaporates. Add wine to pan; cook for 2 minutes or until liquid almost evaporates. Stir in thyme, and cook for 30 seconds.
