I love mushrooms. This recipe tasted great! I almost halfed the liquids since I didn't have 2 lbs of mushrooms, but didn't thanks to satisfied chris's comment. I will make these again.

I used just a small carton of mushrooms but the same amount of liquids. My DH loved them and said they were just as fancy & tasty as the expensive ones at the store!

Just A Heads Up! I did not rate this recipe because I cut it in half and had major problems. 3/4 tsp salt is way too much - maybe cut back to 1/4 tsp. Do not simmer 10 minutes - too little liquid and ingredients burn easily. I'll try the recipe again when I have a full 2 lbs. of mushrooms. But, I repeat, do not cut this recipe in half without playing with ingredient amounts and timing
