Hungry Girl Official Recipe Picture
I was very excited to try this Hungry Girl Big Mac swap. Since we are moving away from a bad fast food habit this obviously was very attractive to us. Aldi's happened to have 2-3 packs of portabella mushrooms for $1.99 so I bought them up and got ready to take the plunge.
The only thing we changed is we didn't add the extra chopped onions. We aren't huge onions fans so we saw no reason to add them.
If we were to make any changes we might try grilling the mushrooms instead of cooking over the stove. We wondered if that might add to the culinary experience. lol
SO what did we think? Are you dying to know? A burger with mushrooms? It's a kind of unheard of, right? Wellll.....We LOVED it! The first bite was a perfect surprise. The sauce was spot on and the lettuce and cheese were nice compliments to the mushroom. It only got weird toward the end when I had ran out of sauce and lettuce and my mushroom/sauce/lettuce/cheese ratio was messed up. By then my bun was a little saturated from the mushroom. This is why we would try grilling and possibly eliminate extra moisture.
My only caution is, if you hate mushrooms this is not for you. But if you like fried mushrooms or mushrooms on pizza I think you should definitely give this a try.
Hope you enjoy! Let us know if you give this one a try. :)
