About

Mushrooms and Herbs Salad. I really enjoy eating mushrooms although not all the members of our household agree with me, there is always room for a polite bite.  In actuality, mushrooms bring a touch of heartiness to most dishes.
Mushrooms can be prepared in so many different ways. Raw in a salad or as a salad, as we have it here. Soup, roasted, sautéed,  or baked in the oven. And let’s not forget in an omelet with parsley.
Not all mushrooms taste the same and here I will use your regular edible white or brown cap mushrooms.
A simple salad with yogurt and lots of herbs giving the mushrooms a savory new flavor dimension.  Light and simple, you can make extra dressing and store it in the refrigerator for later use.
