Meal Plan Featuring Mushrooms
Updated: Feb. 08, 2024
Add 'shrooms to this week's menu! On Sunday, make a nice (but easy!) rigatoni dinner and prep Monday's burgers. Make and shape patties, and store in the fridge for Monday night. (For a beefed up version, mix the mushrooms with 1/2 lb lean ground beef.)

Friday: Chili-Lime Mushroom Tacos
I used to make this dish with beef, but substituting with portobella mushrooms turned it into my family’s vegetarian favorite. It’s quick, nutritious, low fat and tasty. —Greg Fontenot, The Woodlands, TexasOriginally Published: July 14, 2021
