Breaded Mushrooms

in , ,

The breaded mushrooms are a simple and delicious recipe. Roberto had bought some pleurotus mushrooms, and I decided to cook them this way, breading and baking them. Not even a crumb was left! The breaded mushrooms are very tasty, tender, and super flavorful, with a crispy breading and no eggs, perfect as an appetizer, side dish, or vegetarian main course. I recommend making plenty as they will disappear quickly. 😀
