We had bbq rib eye steaks (rare & med. rare) that really smelled good
cooking as the snow fell! Vegetables included steamed red potatoes,
steamed baby asparagus, and sauteed portabello mushrooms. The meal was
quite good!

On the issue of portabellos: This time I tried them sliced and sauteed.
There wasn't a real noticable taste difference from reg. mushrooms.
DH didn't notice anything other than the larger size. A follow-up to one
of my kids revealed they didn't notice a remarkable taste difference but
portabellos are higher in nutritional value than white mushrooms. What
am I missing? Is this worth spending extra money on? I thought I was
supposed to be getting a different flavour!
