We're having company over for dinner tonight who are vegetarians. There are a number of traditional Mexican dishes we could have fixed - cheese enchiladas, quesadillas, bean burritos, bean and cheese tostadas, etc etc etc - but we wanted to try something new with the Baby Portobello mushrooms we had in the refrigerator. I think Javier came up with a winner...
As I've written about before, he usually makes chile verde with pork. One time he tried it with chicken breast, and it just wasn't that great. So this time he's cautiously optimistic. He says he's going to treat the cut-up mushrooms as if they were cubed pork, and is going to make the recipe exactly as he makes the meat version.
I hope the cut-up mushrooms show up in the pictures, because they are definitely there. It tastes great, and we plan to serve it to our friends over brown rice and/or pinto beans. We also have some guacamole and warm corn and whole wheat tortillas to serve with the meal. They're bringing the dessert.
What's not to love about this meal ???
