Top 10 reasons to love mushrooms, the ultimate fun-guy (fungi)
ushrooms are considered Nature’s Hidden Treasure and the star of the produce aisle, thanks to their nutrition, value and versatility. A growing body of research links mushrooms to good health.

According to consumer studies, mushrooms are among the three most popular vegetables in the United States along with tomatoes and broccoli. 3. Mushrooms are low in calories, fat free, cholesterol-free and can be an effective substitute for meats, thanks to their hearty and fulfilling nature. 4. Cook with mushrooms every day, every way! Add them in soups, omelets, stir fries, pasta, rice, salads and kebobs. Swap mushrooms for meat in sandwiches, burgers, or meatballs. 5. Scientists at City of Hope were some of the first to study the potential effects of white button
mushrooms on cancer and are now applying this research to human clinical trials. 6. Within the produce aisle, mushrooms are a leading source of the antioxidants that help strengthen the immune system and protect body cells from damage that might lead to chronic diseases. 7. California ‘gurl,’ Katy Perry, considers mushrooms to be her secret to staying slim and one of her favorite foods, according to BangMedia International. 8.

Buffalo and Blue Cheese-Stuffed Button Mushrooms Recipe courtesy of the mushroominfo.com and Pithy and Cleaver Yield: 5 servings
Ingredients
20 button mushrooms 3/4 cup chopped shallots 2 tablespoons butter 1/2 lb mild blue cheese, crumbled 1/4 cup Frank's RedHot Sauce 1/2 cup + 1/4 cup panko, divided Olive oil Additional Frank's RedHot Sauce for serving
Directions
Preheat oven to 375°F, and place a rack in the upper third of the oven. Clean mushrooms and remove stems. Cut ends from stems and chop finely. Chop two of the mushrooms finely as well. Dice shallots. Melt butter in a heavy 4 qt pan and add shallots. Sauté over medium-low heat until transparent and then add chopped mushrooms and stems. Sauté until softened and remove pan from heat. Stir in blue cheese, Frank's sauce,
and 1/2 cup panko, stir until smooth. Grease a cookie sheet with olive oil. Brush mushroom caps with oil and spread out on cookie sheet. Fill each mushroom cap with a spoonful of the cheese stuffing, letting it mound just slightly on the top of the mushroom. Sprinkle the remaining panko over the top. Bake for 18-20 minutes, until mushrooms are soft. If you have a broiler, feel free to turn it on for a minute or two to crisp up the top, but watch it carefully. Serve with additional hot sauce.
About The Mushroom Council: The Mushroom Council is composed of fresh market producers or importers who average more than 500,000 pounds of mushrooms produced or imported annually.

Starting a new Spring tradition
pring is such a revitalizing season. Winter coats are shed as the daylight hours grow longer and seasonal foods begin to make their delicious debut. The season’s spirit of change affects so many parts of our lives, and the most enjoyable results can be found at the dinner table. “I love the springtime. We all come out of winter, and suddenly want to reconnect with friends and family. There’s just something in the air that renews us,” says
Stephanie Gallo, a third generation Gallo family member. “As a family we all love to cook, so nowhere can you see this more than in our springtime recipes.” This year, Gallo Family Vineyards® invites you to start a new tradition by brightening up your recipes with a springtime makeover. Invite your friends over for an update of those crowd-pleasing dishes with fresh, seasonal foods like asparagus, or even unexpected in-season fruit like pineapple. Try giving chicken tacos a fresh start
by adding chili powder and pineapples. The pairing of sweet and spicy is a wonderful companion for the savory chicken. And finish the meal with a glass of crisp, delicious wine. The Gallo Family Vineyards Moscato with its delicious honey and ripe citrus flavors tames the spicy heat and plays up on the fruit flavors. Your guests will love the fresh approach to the meal. Please visit www.gallofamily.com for more information on Gallo Family Vineyards.

A home cook’s take on tacos “al pastor,” the sweet and spicy chicken is full of fresh new flavors. Helpful tip: Prepare the chicken ahead of time and reheat in a sauté pan as you assemble the tacos later on.

Prep Time: 40 minutes Cook Time: 50 minutes Yield: 10 – 14 small tacos
Ingredients:
2 pounds bone-in chicken thighs 1 teaspoon cumin 1 teaspoon dried Mexican oregano 1 teaspoon salt 2 teaspoons pepper 1 teaspoon chili powder Canola oil 1 medium onion, sliced 2 cloves garlic, crushed 1 jalapeño 1/2 tablespoon tomato paste 1-2 cups chicken stock 1 small (8 oz) can crushed pineapple
1 bay leaf 2 cups fresh (or canned) diced pineapple 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro 1/2 red onion, small diced 1 lime, juiced 15-20 corn or flour tortillas
Directions: Mix together cumin, oregano, salt, pepper, and chili powder. Season
chicken thighs with spice mix, including under skin. Heat a few tablespoons of canola oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Brown chicken on both sides, turning once, until golden brown, remove chicken from pan. Add onion, garlic, and 1/2 jalapeno to same pan and briefly cook until fragrant, about 3 minutes, add tomato paste and stir to cook about 2 minutes more. Add chicken stock, crushed pineapple, and bay leaf, stir to combine and add chicken back to pan, adding more chicken stock if necessary to cover almost, but not quite, the chicken. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low and simmer until chicken is cooked all the way through, about 40 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool to room temperature. Remove chicken from cooking liquid and shred chicken, discarding bones and skin. Hold shredding chicken in a few cups of the cooking liquid to keep moist. While chicken is cooking, prepare pineapple salsa by mixing together diced pineapple, cilantro, red onion, and lime juice. Finely dice remaining 1/2 jalapeno and add pineapple salsa according to desired spice level. Reheat chicken in sauté pan, serve on warm tortillas garnished with pineapple salsa.
