The best and EASIEST way to make mushrooms. In a crockpot with garlic, herbs and butter! Just 5 min prep.
I know. It’s 90 degrees here in California and I’m here with a slow cooker recipe. But that’s exactly why you need to dust off that slow cooker from storage. There’s no need to turn on that oven or stovetop since it will just add to this summer heat.
With the crockpot, it really does all of the work for you. You can throw your mushrooms, garlic and herbs right into the slow cooker. Set it and forget it.
You just need to stir in half and half (you can also substitute heavy cream and/or milk) and some butter because, well, butter makes everything just a little bit better.
If you really want to take it a step further, you can stir in a little bit of cornstarch (mixed with water) for a thicker, creamier sauce, although you really won’t need it. These mushrooms are just packed with so much flavor, and you’ll want to slurp down that sauce like it’s mushroom soup!
