If you are anything like me, then you are usually lacking some inspiration when it comes to side dishes. Whilst a simple green salad or plain broccoli are great, they do get a little bit boring, so I am going to be sharing lots more side dishes with you all. Although mushrooms are not the most interesting thing to eat when they are plain, they take on the flavour of herbs really well and make a great side dish, so don’t overlook them.

I also love mushrooms because of their meaty texture. When I was a vegetarian, they made up a huge part of my diet and that was great for my meat eating husband too. Mushrooms are one of the cheaper vegetables too.
Ingredients – Serves 2:
– 500g/5 cups fresh mushrooms (I used a mixture of mini portobello and chestnuts)
– 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
– 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
– 2 cloves of garlic, crushed
– 4 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
– A pinch of sea salt and black pepper
1) Halve the mushrooms and put in a baking dish and put in a preheated oven at 200C/390F for 15 minutes. Take out of the oven and pour away the liquid.
2) Add the rest of the ingredients to the mushrooms and stir well and put back in the oven for 10 minutes.

Dannii says
We often buy big packs of mushrooms reduced in the supermarkets and make this with them to use them up.

I do love a bit of roasted garlic, so sweet and juicy. Lovely pairings x
Maria says
I would love some more low calorie sides like this. I am eating low carb at the moment, so the usual potatoes are out of the question. Thanks x
Bex says
The leftovers would be good for breakfast too. Although with the garlic, maybe not if you have to go out after haha.
Hillary says
Thanks for sharing another great recipe Dannii. I am vegan and I find myself eating the same things over and over again as I am not very good at coming up with new things. That is why I am so glad that I found your blog.
Areletta says
Do you think adding in some mustard to this would work well?
Oh, and I like to add mushrooms to omelettes, that is my favourite way to have them.
Tammy says
I am definitely making this at the weekend. I think it would go really well with steak.
Eliza says
I really hope that you plan on bringing out a recipe book soon. I would love to buy it.
Jo says
I love mushroom and halloumi burgers. I really don’t miss the meat, as like you say they have quite a meaty texture. I still can’t convince my other half though. He says he needs to meat.
Dawn says
Oooh, balsamic mushrooms? Sounds great.
Natalie says
Great simple recipe.
Holly says
I am going to make this tonight with your paprika chicken skewers that I had already planned on making. Love your recipes!
Sarah says
I would love some more budget side dishes. We usually just have plain vegetables, but my kids find them boring, which makes it really difficult to get them to eat it. If you could make them kid friendly too, that would be great 🙂
Emily says
I love the combination of mushrooms and parsley.
Elizabeth says
These sounds really good.
