Stuffed Poblano Chiles with Sausage & Corn

Manchego-Stuffed Mushrooms

Spanish tapas favorites--briny olives, ham, and nutty Manchego cheese--fill button mushrooms for an addictive one-bite appetizer recipe.

Roasted Mushroom-Goat Cheese Tart

Roasting flowerlike clusters of maitake mushrooms (also known as hen of the woods) in a hot oven browns and crisps their frilly edges so they look especially artful on this savory tart. A creamy filling of goat cheese, crème fraîche, and lemon balances some of the mushroom's richness.

Skillet Chicken and Green Beans with Lemon-Tahini Sauce

This skillet dinner packs a double-dose of protein thanks to the obvious chicken thighs and the not-as-obvious tahini paste. Tahini is made from sesame seeds, and in that concentrated form you get more protein.

Mint Matcha Milk Shake

Mushroom Miso Soup

Miso, the salty (and yes, a little funky) fermented soybean paste, is the secret to an umami-rich broth that is light but deeply layered with flavor. Thinly sliced button mushrooms are a natural fit for this 20-minute soup: They add more umami and soften but keep their bite during a quick simmer.

Moroccan Red Lentil Soup

Aleppo pepper is a dried ground chile that looks like crushed red pepper but has undertones of cumin and fruit, plus less heat. If you like a mild kick, sprinkle it on almost anything: eggs, roasted veggies, even peanut butter toast.
