Mushroom ragout

This mushroom ragout recipe is long due. I actually made it a while back but with all of the other good recipes I have been making lately this recipe kind of was left on the back burner. Not because it is a bad recipe but because the other recipes where too good to wait to post.

I used my new cast iron skillet for this recipe. I really love this piece of equipment. I want to experiment a lot further with this pan because I have heard that the possibilities are endless when it comes to using a cast iron to cook with. Do you have any favorite cast iron skillet you can share? Please let me know, I would love to have your recipe!

Anyhow, there is a lot of sauce that this mushroom ragout generates. I used whole grain bread that I toasted that was great with the sauce. I also cooked some quinoa and served it with it to make it more of a complete meal. It was delicious. The sauce is what really made this recipe. It is fantastic.

I think this recipe could also go great with some whole wheat pasta. Any type of grain would go perfect with this mushroom ragout, so choose which ever one you prefer.

Let me know if you get to try this recipe. It is super tasty, saucy, healthy and extremely simple to put together.

Enjoy!
