A few of my favorite facts about the meaty portobello:
1. Portobello, pronounced [fusion_builder_container hundred_percent=”yes” overflow=”visible”][fusion_builder_row][fusion_builder_column type=”1_1″ background_position=”left top” background_color=”” border_size=”” border_color=”” border_style=”solid” spacing=”yes” background_image=”” background_repeat=”no-repeat” padding=”” margin_top=”0px” margin_bottom=”0px” class=”” id=”” animation_type=”” animation_speed=”0.3″ animation_direction=”left” hide_on_mobile=”no” center_content=”no” min_height=”none”][por-toh-BEHL-loh]. The portobello, also called portabella, is really just a brown crimini mushroom in disguise.
2. The portobello mushroom contains zero grams of fat. (Now thats something to cheer about!)
3. You can enjoy portobello mushrooms raw, cooked as a side dish or chopped up into your favorite salad.
4. The portobello mushroom is a great meat alternative. You can easily replace a beef patty with a portobello mushroom on a whole wheat bun — a far less caloric option than the beef; a 3 oz. broiled beef patty contains 240 calories and a whopping 16 g of artery clogging fat.
5. VITAMINS AND MINERALS- Portobello mushrooms provide a range of B-vitamins. Portobellos also serve as a great source of copper, selenium, potassium and phosphorus.
6. ANTIOXIDANTS- Enjoy portobello mushrooms and you’re taking in a rich source of antioxidants, antioxidants protect your cells from free-radical damage. The mighty portobello mushroom has more free-radical-cancer fighting power than green beans and carrots.
Cooking Tip-
The longer you cook the portobello, the meatier (firmer textured) the mushroom gets.
