Tessa’s Recipe Rundown
Taste: Savory, spicy, earthy. Texture: The mushrooms have a fulfilling meatiness yet are tender and moist. Ease: This entire meal can be thrown together in less than 15 minutes. Appearance: Anything sprinkled with cheese is bound to look mouth-watering. Pros:Super fast, healthy, and perfect for a meatless meal Cons: None. Would I make this again? I already have. I made the mushrooms again and threw them in some quesadillas. Heidi suggests using the mushrooms as a filling for crepes which I might try next!This post may contain affiliate links.

These look so delicious! I just bought Heidi's book and am glad to read a rave review for this particular recipe. (As if I'd expect anything less.)
Quick question: what brand of tortillas do you buy? Don't mean to pry, but yours just look so thick and perfect, I couldn't help myself. Love your blog!!
Thanks! The tortillas in this picture were either Trader Joe's whole wheat or this recipe for homemade: https://handletheheat.com/2011/06/homemade-kit… – can't remember which! They're both wonderful, though.
These look seriously incredible! Love mushrooms AND my meat-eating hubby loves them, too! Win-win.
my roommate and i just ate these and loved them. we also concluded that this would make a good filling for a breakfast burrito (but ill leave that to someone else, since i dont eat eggs).
I can not wait to try these! Yours look delish, thanks so much for recommending!
