Easy Marinated Mushrooms

Marinated mushrooms are an easy appetizer to make.  Below is my recipe that I have included in “recipe tree” mailings.

Have you ever participated in one? Think chain letter, but instead of sending money, you’re sending a recipe to a few people and hope to get at least one back in return. Unfortunately I have never received reciprocal recipes. However I have sent this one out quite a few times.

I really like mushrooms! For more ideas visit the sloCooking archives at slocooking.blogspot.com.
