This really is a great combination! Very, very easy to make and much more elegant than plain ol' broccoli, our usual stand-by. The thyme was a great addition, really added tremendous flavor. A full pound of Shitake mushrooms were a bit pricy, so I substituted half Shitakes and half button mushrooms to please both my tastebuds and my pocketbook. (Hmmm, portabellas, Sharon? I'll definitely try that one!) Thanks, Beth - we may never have plain broccoli again.

I cook broccoli mostly because I love it and my hubby eats it because he knows it's good for him. But he has never really LIKED it...until now! The mushroom and thyme flavors mixed in made this a very appealing dish! The Parmesan topped it off just right. I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out fantastic! Thanks Beth, this will be repeated!
