Baby Bellas Big Taste

 If you like portabellas, then you'll love the smaller version - baby bellas. Gr oceries sell them already slicedand they are great  lirr le morsels full of bug flavor

I bought these gems at my local Acme. They were too good to resist and my home chef's mind was full of possibilities. I decided to air fry them .After washing them they were tossed in olive oil and McCormick's Perfect Pinch 




I've sprinkled this blend of different herbs and spices  on popcorn (!) and it was tasty. Why not add it to the baby bellas? It was the perfect marriage.Ir's mostly garlic but there's also rosemary and ground orange peel in it along with paprika and celery seed. I definitely plan on using it for the bigger portabellas.

It was then setting the air fryer at 400 degrees Farenheit for five minutes, then toss the mushrooms so they're evenly cooked. Five more minutes at a lesser heat of 380 degrees Farenheit.

They came our perfect and delicious!!!!!

   They tasted like garlic steak and I plan on making them into a sandwich with garlic bread the next time. They were moist and a little crisp around the edges. I served them with Brussels sprouts drenched in butter and sprinkled in vegan Parmesan cheese. You can also try them with fries or on a bed of flavored rice. They are also a great meat sub in for Sunday dinner.


Baby bellas may be cute but they are grown up in flavor.Try them as a vegan alternative to steak. They are incredibly flavorful to eat with anything from veggies to potatoes to rice.
