Garlic Butter Roasted Mushrooms

Mushrooms are one of my all time favourite vegetables. I love the savoury flavour, how versatile they are, and how they’re kind of meaty. From Mushroom Rice to Mushrooms on Toast, in pies, pasta, and this amazing creamy Mushroom Sauce, I am pretty sure it is the most used vegetable on my website! Well, perhaps second only to onion.

In fact, if I had to choose one vegetable to live on forever, I’m pretty sure it would be mushrooms. BIG STATEMENT I stand by!!

I’m also pretty sure this recipe I’m sharing today is the way I cook mushrooms the most frequently – roasted in garlic butter. Quick and easy to prep, totally low maintenance to cook.
