Gather together the freshest garden tomatoes, aromatic herbs, and a few FunGuy mushrooms and in less than 10 minutes, this salad could be on the table waiting to be enjoyed with anything from barbecued chicken to grilled fish, and everything in between!
DIRECTIONS:
- Brush off any debris from the FunGuy mushrooms with a damp cloth. Trim the stems and slice the mushrooms as thinly as possible. Wash the tomatoes, basil, and oregano thoroughly. Remove the tough core from the tomatoes before thinly slicing the large tomatoes, cherry tomatoes, and thinly slice the onion. Pat the basil and oregano dry with paper towels before stacking the basil leaves and slicing them into thin ribbons and removing the stem from the oregano. Cut the lemon in half.
- Put the mushrooms in a bowl and squeeze one half the lemon over the mushrooms, careful to remove any seeds. Sprinkle with half of the salt and toss well.
- Place the tomatoes, onions, and mushrooms with the lemon juice on a large serving plate, then add the basil and oregano, sprinkle with the left over salt, squeeze the other half of the lemon over everything. Finish the salad by drizzling the olive oil over the plate.
- Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
