When plentiful for picking, I love to over indulge in them... there's no scrimping due to cost per pound at the grocery store! LOL

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.
