Let’s talk about mushrooms!

Mushrooms are an excellent keto food choice. They’re low in both calories and carbs. One cup of mushrooms contains only 2 net grams of carbs. Mushrooms also provide us with antioxidants, fiber, and potassium. I used cremini mushrooms to make this dish. I think this type of mushroom brings amazing mushroom flavor and has a nice earthy flavor. Alternately, you can also use white mushrooms, also known as button mushrooms. To prep mushrooms, you’ll often see the advice not to rinse them, but to just lightly brush them to clean. I choose to lightly rinse mine, then I set them out on a paper towel and pat dry with another paper towel. I quartered my mushrooms to make this dish, but if you’d like larger pieces, you can halve or even keep yours whole if they’re not too large.

How do I make these keto garlic rosemary mushrooms?

These mushrooms are incredibly easy to make which makes them perfect for even your busiest of days. I saute my mushrooms in butter and olive oil. Alternately, you can use all butter or all olive oil if you’d prefer. I used salted butter, but you can use unsalted if you’d like. To make our mushroom dish, we’re adding minced garlic, fresh rosemary, salt, and pepper to our mushrooms. One of the great things about this dish is that we’re simply adding all the ingredients to a skillet and sauteing until done. Depending on how strong a rosemary flavor you’d like, you can use 2-3 teaspoons of fresh chopped rosemary. If you’d like to use dried, you’ll want to add about 1 teaspoon of dried in place of the fresh. When sauteing your mushrooms, you’ll want to cook them until they’re nicely browned and most of the liquid has cooked off.

What are some ways I can serve these keto garlic rosemary mushrooms?

You have some awesome keto options for serving these mushrooms. They’re wonderful served as a side dish or as a topping for meats.

When served as a side, these mushrooms pair nicely with all kinds of meats including beef, chicken, pork, and seafood. You can serve them with pulled chicken or pulled pork, roasts, or with any kind of keto casserole. This dish is quick and easy enough to serve with everyday meals, yet it’s also elegant enough to serve with holiday and special occasion meals.
