That sounds very good, Mustic. I saved it!


Sounds very good. Saved.


Yum! A definate "Must Try." Aren't portobellas wonderful? Last weekend I added two diced caps to a pot of chilli, just on a whim. It added the perfect touch. Thanks for the recipe!


Wow that looks good! It looks pretty hard though, I'll have to try it. I LOVE mushrooms, so this will be perfect! Thanks!
