Creamed Mushrooms are the perfect side dish for Thanksgiving or any special occasion. This is one of my favorite side dishes along with Creamed Corn and Creamed Spinach.
Thanksgiving is fast approaching and I’ve been busy in the kitchen. Especially busy using butter and cream. I like to mostly cook comfort food for Thanksgiving because it’s once a year. I’m making mostly creamed vegetables and of course
Mac and Cheese and Turkey.
I absolutely love anything “creamed”. You can serve me a creamed shoe and I might enjoy it. I made these creamed mushrooms last year for Thanksgiving and my little cousins who aren’t mushroom fans devoured them. I promise I’m not lying. I am sort of a skeptic and usually don’t believe stories like those but I am honestly telling the truth. They devoured those delicious creamed mushrooms 🙂
I’ll be making these mushrooms every single year. You will too if you give them a try.
