Healthy Eating Adventures are supported in part by a grant from Summit Endowment.

Beautiful and nutritious Royal Trumpet Mushrooms....season and air fry as an hors d'oeuvre or add them to an entree! Wash, slice sprinkle with onion, garlic and ginger powder, then massage with a bit of tomato paste to help your favorite green herbs stick (such as thyme, basil & rosemary), air fry 15-20 minutes (or roast at 400). Mushrooms have the antioxidants ergothioneine and glutathione (and many other nutrients) that go to work protecting against cognitive decline, and depression and anxiety! And mushrooms grown outside are a good source of Vitamin D!!
