I adore mushrooms on toast. I would have that every day for breakfast if I could. Shallow fry in butter, and garnish with parsley. Yum.
Or, I'd make a vat of mushroom soup, and maybe thicken it up a bit to make some pasta sauce.

Bloody hell, how many mushrooms do you have?!

A mahooooosive box!

there is a fabulous mushroom website (yes really!) with loads of recipes and ideas,can't remember the exact name but try googling !!

Mushroom soup. Yum. Dead easy too!
Garlic butter mushrooms on toast.

Hmm can't seem to find that Ragwort

Have found chilli, mushroom and bean mince

mince and mushroom stew

mince beef with mushrooms and potatoes/pasta

mince and mushroom pasta

Mushroom duxelles for flavouring casseroles, stewn etc. From memory it's very finely chopped mushrooms simmered gently with butter until you get a thickish paste. Could be worth a google.

Chicken and mushroom pie/leek and mushroom pie
Chickpea and mushroom stew
Roasted mushrooms with garlic, onion and creme fraiche on pasta
Grilled with steak
Mushroom pate?
Chicken breasts stuffed with mushrooms - this uses up loads!

I have the most gorgeous cream of mushroom soup I make every Autumn from a Sainsbo's mag. Its garlic, mushrooms (2 types), butter, wholemeal bread, parsley, thyme and stock stirred through with a little cream at the end.

Everyone adores it.

Thyme and butter are two things a mushroom can't do without, IMO.

Bacon and mushroom pasta a big hit here. Great with pasta, either with creme fraiche or tomato based sauce, although I prefer creme fraiche as you can taste the mushies more then.

Chicken and mushroom puff pastry pie
Mushroom pithiviers

Oh and there's a yum mushrrom puff pastry pie in Nigel Slater's Appetite, used to make this loads

< riffles through fridge, puff tick, mushies tick, creme fraiche nooooooo :( >

Dry some?

Nigel Slater also does a GORGEOUS mushroom lasagne...mmmmmmmmm

taffetacat can you do the recipe for that soup it sounds delish!

Bonfire Mushroom Soup

3 x 250g packs of mushrooms, mix of portabella and chestnut, sliced
110g unsalted butter
2 tablespns fresh parsley
2-3 sprigs fresh thyme, leaves only
1 large clove garlic peeled and finely chopped
whole nutmeg for grating
2 thick slices wholemeal bread, crusts removed
2 litres hot chicken stock
1 x 284ml pot double cream ( NB I use half this, I find it too creamy and unshroomy otherwise )
sea salt

Stew mushrooms gently in the butter in large heavy bottomed pan and when their juices begin to run, add half the parsley, the thyme, garlic and season with sea salt, pepper and a grating of nutmeg. Soak the bread in a little of the stock and add it to the mushrooms and then add the rest of the stock. Cook for about 15 mins, uncovered at a gentle simmer, then liquidise. If freezing, freeze at this stage. Otherwise stir in cream and bring soup just up to boil test seasoning and scatter over rest of parsley.

Mushroom Lasgne it is tonight.

Smash Have you got a recipe for chicken breasts stuffed with mushrooms?

Lentils and mushrooms - yum yum esp with a bit of bacon

Taffetacat, you can do the puff pastry tart without creme fraiche, just fry the mushrooms in plenty of butter and put some sort of melty cheese on the tart

Hi, yes it goes like this:

Get about a pound of mushrooms, more if you like, to go in/on 4 chicken breasts

Chop the shrooms very small, about half cm pieces (tedious but nevermind!), and saute gently with finely chopped garlic, olive oil, and thyme and loads of chopped parsely.

It'll reduce down lots, then when it's cooled down, use it to stuff in to chicken breasts and if you like, wrap a piece of bacon round them then bake for about 30 mins or till done through x

Sorry - obviously salt and pepper too! x
