Why do I like it?
The combination of warm mushrooms, lentils and greens with tangy lemon dressing makes a winning dish! Anytime you can add lentils for protein it makes the salad a more satisfying meal.
The technique described in this recipe to cook the mushrooms yields a golden almost caramelized edge. I liked this way of cooking mushrooms so much, I do it now whenever I have some mushrooms I want to quick cook.
My niece found this recipe and we made it for a family get-together. I wasn’t sure if people would like it, but it was gone by the end of the event! If you have any, the leftovers taste great as well!
