Mushroom Heaven! Tasty and Healthy

The mushroom is a gem of a food, highly underrated and packed full of flavour. Every culture on the planet uses some form of mushroom in their cooking.

They can be eaten cooked or raw and are so full of nutrients they are classed as a super food.

Rather than repeat what is in this article, I'll simply place the link for The Humble Crimini Mushroom here.

Not sure how to cook it, why not make a delicious soup BBC Food Mushroom Soup Recipe by James Tanner (can be used by vegetarians and (if substitute butter for marg), by vegans too.
Or how about Nick Nairn's quick and easy Stuffed Mushroom recipe, again, suitable for vegetarians (but not so much for vegans (unless happy to substitute cheese for a non-dairy cheese)).

Or why not try a quick salad with cucumber, cherry tomatoes, leafy greens, pine nuts and raw mushrooms with a home made vinegrette.

On another note, I have written 3 books. 2 are part of a series set in Scoltand about the Sidhe, fairy folk. Available on kindle and in paperback:

The Island of the Mist is book 2

The Stone in the Sword is book 1

The 3rd book is an adult, sexy witchy werewolf/vampire story set in New York and featuring a strong female lead character, again available in kindle and paperback formats:

The Wolf, the Witch and the Coffin
