Butter and Garlic Mushrooms

This is a favorite side dish to any meal. It takes just a few minutes to cook up the most savory, buttery, garlicky mushrooms ever. Eat them as they are, or add them to your favorite dish.

We spent Presidents Day cleaning the house, running errands, going to the pediatrician, and shopping for Beanie Babies.

I love that the boys still collect Beanie Babies. I think it started years ago when I surprised them one Valentine’s morning with a box of convo hearts and a Beanie Baby next to their bed when they awoke. Every year since, they’ve come to eagerly anticipate which Beanie they’ll wake up to on Valentines.

Then they each started getting a Beanie during every trip we went on.  Now the boys have taken to using their own spending money to grow their collection. Super cute.

Granted, the plushies are used for living room animal wars and battles. It’s not all cuddly and sweet by any means. #lifewithboys

But when all is said and done, at the end of the day, those little bean filled animals are lined up along the boys’ pillows and are what they fall asleep with each night…

I know this Beanie love won’t last long so I’m all for it as long as it lasts. Maybe someday I’ll get to send Beanie Babies to three grown up boys away at college.

So after our little Ty shopping spree, we visited the kid doc. When Doc asked The Littlest Little what his favorite food was, he didn’t miss a beat. Tomatoes and mushrooms.

Doc said she rarely, if ever, heard that for an answer from any of her patients.

I backed up The Little with a nod and Yeah, it’s true. For his birthday he requested Mac and cheese. With tomatoes and mushrooms on the side.  No lie.

These are some luscious mushrooms, if I do say so myself.

Butter and Garlic Mushrooms are the perfect accompaniment to any meal. These are not only great on the side, but are fabulous to add in to anything from omelettes to casseroles.

Mushrooms cook up very quickly and soak up flavors beautifully, making them a fast and easy side dish. I recently discovered how full of antioxidants and nutrients they are, too.  I prefer Baby Bellas and Creminis, but white mushrooms will work just as well.

Enjoy!
