WAYS TO MODIFY ROASTED MUSHROOMS

SPICES: You can modify these mushrooms with spices to change their flavor. Try using Italian seasoning, crushed red pepper, paprika, cayenne red pepper or cumin. 

FRESH HERBS: Fresh herbs are always a nice addition to roasted mushrooms. I like fresh basil, parsley, oregano, thyme or dill. 

SAUCE: This recipe uses a soy balsamic sauce but you could use a variety of other sauce options. Try using olive oil and red wine vinegar, or add a little mustard to the sauce. Another option is to add worcestershire sauce.

HEAT: If you like spice you could add chopped or diced jalapeños or chili peppers. You can also add a touch of hot sauce. 

OTHER VEGETABLES: You could add vegetables in with the mushrooms when you roast them. Some veggies I like are diced bell peppers, carrots, broccoli or cauliflower.
