They are adults and don't have to be enticed to eat veggies, but they always ask for these little morsels when they come home.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37188293.post-88074296015436749142007-08-17T03:16:00.000+01:002007-08-17T03:16:00.000+01:00It is so interesting that you are growing your own...It is so interesting that you are growing your own mushrooms!

(Fortunately no cat either...)How long does it usually take them to be ready to harvest?<BR/>I love this recipe. Usually I just do some thyme bashed up with a little garlic and lots of lemon zest and olive oil.

But for a first try this is great. I think literally he has never felt the need to eat any mushroom before, preferring to pick it off. I like the idea of grilling them and making them into a sandwich - I could do that with a circle of mozarella to make it extra yummy.<BR/>Cynthia - Funny - because the UK is so wet and muggy we grow great mushrooms!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37188293.post-38765806418574826332007-08-15T02:13:00.000+01:002007-08-15T02:13:00.000+01:00Charlotte I'd have to give this a great big fat 10...Charlotte I'd have to give this a great big fat 10!

I have a tasty recipe for <A HREF="http://cooking-101.blogspot.com/2007/01/red-gold.html" REL="nofollow">shrooms with noodles</A> on my site but it doesn't have bacon in it (that seems to get high ratings from Fred) and is a tad spicy. What about mushroom pizza? or stir-fry with shiitakes? or grilled portabellos made into a sandwich?
