I wish I had taken a picture...
This meal takes less than 20 minutes to prepare (If you can get your water boiling!). The onions cook nicely and release their sugars into the sauce mellowing the earthiness of the mushrooms. Not only was this recipe easy to make, it was easy on the budget. It tasted pretty good too and I am not a big fan of 'shrooms.
