Lemon Butter Mushrooms

         I have never met a mushroom I didn’t like.  I like them grilled, marinated, stuffed, roasted, and sauteed.  These lemon butter mushrooms make a fantastic side dish.  They are roasted in the oven in butter and oil then sprinkled with lemon juice and fresh parsley.  I especially love them with Greek or Italian food.  You can also change the flavor up by subbing balsamic vinegar for the lemon juice.

Lemon Butter Mushrooms
Ingredients
16 oz whole white mushrooms (You can half them if you prefer, they will cook a little faster!)
3 Tbsp unsalted butter
3 Tbsp olive oil
garlic powder
salt and pepper
juice of 1 – 2 lemons
fresh parsley, chopped
Directions
Place mushrooms in a small baking dish.  Chop butter into little piece and dot all over the mushrooms.  Pour oil over the mushrooms.  Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes or until cooked, stirring every 10 minutes and basting in the butter sauce.  Sprinkle with garlic powder, salt and pepper to taste.  Squeeze fresh lemon juice all over and garnish with fresh parsley and serve!
