These Shiitake Lettuce Cups are both satisfying and easy to make. The earthiness of shiitake mushrooms combined with summer squash and the sweet, tender leaves of butter lettuce are perfect on a hot summer day.
I love combining mushrooms and seasonal veggies as a one-skillet meal in the summertime. Single skillet meals, using minimal ingredients, give me more time for evening walks and sunsets. That’s a definite win for any home cook.
Ingredients Used:
- shiitake mushrooms
- butter lettuce
- summer crookneck squash
- yellow onion
- garlic
- spices: paprika, garlic salt, sea salt, black pepper
- coconut aminos
- avocado oil
Toppers:
Toppers are a nice finishing touch to any handheld meals. I didn’t have many ingredients in my refrigerator for this short recipe and ended up snipping away at the chives in my garden. A few toasted seeds or nuts would have been nice as well.
