These Garlic and Thyme Roasted Mushrooms make a great side dish or addition to a hearty Fall/Winter salad. Better yet, they're delicious and easy to prepare!
If you're leaning toward eating these roasted mushrooms as a side, think steaks. It's a classic pairing. I've also been eating these mushrooms as part of my lunch in grain bowls with quinoa and other roasted vegetables. Top that with some hummus (hummus makes a great salad dressing!) and you're in business.
Mushrooms are like little flavor sponges. They really soak up and take on the flavors of whatever herbs and spices you add. These roasted mushrooms, with their fragrant thyme and savory garlic flavor, smell and taste like Fall.
I've only ever tried to roast cremini mushrooms, but if you try it with other varieties, please report back!

I love mushrooms! Especially with thyme. I'm not sure I've ever tried roasting them, only sauteeing, so I definitely need to test this out. I'd love this on a grilled cheese or with spinach!
Oh man, I hadn't even thought of putting them on a grilled cheese. That's a genius idea!
