Mello Mushrooms

Zilla's Note:

A lower fat appetizer or snack. Very sweet and, well, mello. Use just enough cooking heat to evaporate the liquids.

Directions:

1. warm olive oil in skillet.
2. add garlic and warm garlic in the oil.

5. Toss and heat mushrooms and broth until the pan is again dry.

Very good! I used vegetable broth instead of chicken broth. I accidentally mixed up the order of the broth and balsamic vinegar, but they turned out well anyway. I snacked on these at work -- yummy!
