~Curry Mushrooms~ Yum!

I made this super simple dish last night for dinner, and it was so delicious I had to share!

It has long been said that mushrooms are a super food, so I've been trying to incorporate more of them into my diet. The problem here is that unless they are floating in an Asian noodle bowl with kick-ass broth, or cooked together with some beans in a veggie burger, I rarely actually like mushrooms. This recipe changed my view, and made the mushrooms the main dish.

First, start with some standard white button mushrooms, fresh is highly recommended. (Rubbery canned mushrooms are what made me hate them in the first place)

Slice them up, keeping it fairly chunky. This is a hearty meal. Crush some fresh garlic (or use powder), and throw it all in a pan with some olive oil, and start to saute.

As you stir, sprinkle on paprika, red pepper (I like mine spicy!) salt, pepper, and curry powder. Keep cooking the mushrooms till they feel almost tender.

At this point in the cooking last night, I decided that some acid would make the dish ten times better, and I added a big dollop of tangy greek yogurt. This made the dish.

Keep stirring till the yogurt evenly coats the mushrooms and its heated all the way through. The mushrooms should be completely cooked now.

That's it! I ate mine with pita bread, but these mushrooms would be super good with rice, quinoa, or even mashed potatoes.

On the side I had some slice avocado, tomatoes, and little piece of chicken for extra protein. A healthy meal, not too painful! Enjoy :)
