Near any meal recipe can include chanterelles, omelettes, sandwiches, salads, pastas, meats.... My only recommendation is to at least cook them, a light saute' in butter, before adding to a dish that isn't going to be cooked as a whole.

Thanks for answering and the mushroom lesson! I did not have knowledge about Chanterelles and apparently they do not grow in Kentucky. I believe we have Morels. As children, we are warned to stay away from wild mushrooms, unless we have knowledge, so the only mushrooms we consume are from Kroger's.
I imagine your dishes with mushrooms are wonderful.
