Broccoli was one of the green vegetables of choice for my Designer Thanksgiving Dinner, and what better way to serve broccoli, than with my favourite "funghi", portabello. I had thought of using shitake, but decided the wilting of shitake during cooking would detract from the vibrant broccoli green. Portabello keeps its shape, especially when sliced thickly... In place of garlic salt, I added a half dozen thinly sliced garlic cloves for an equally desirable flavour with none of the sodium. How pretty and so very edible it all looked surrounded by the whites of potatoes, oranges of squash and sanguine beets... Thank you Mannymom for your valuable contribution to my Thanksgiving Dinner.

I found this to be a very delicious recipe. I used garlic powder and added some salt and used fresh mushrooms. It was really quite flavourful yet simple to make. The combination goes very well together. Kids loved it too! I will definately make this again.

I found this recipe when searching for new ways to make broccoli, our favorite veggie. This was wonderful! I've made it twice this week already. Once I served it as a side dish with steaks. The next time, I tossed it with some fettucine. It was great both ways! Thanks for a great recipe.
