We had quite an incredible Golden Oyster Mushroom forage the other day, so we’re going a little wild trying to use them all in creative and different ways! For this one, we opted to make Tacos and season them with some seasonings. Then, we arranged them with some classic taco toppings (lettuce, tomato, onion) and drizzled a creamy citrus avocado sauce over everything! The earthy/seafoody notes of these particular mushrooms paired really well from a flavour standpoint, and the textures worked out nicely too!
