Skillet Butter and Garlic Mushrooms and Cauliflower

Skillet Butter and Garlic Mushrooms and Cauliflower

A stove top skillet mushroom and cauliflower side dish in plenty of butter and garlic!

This skillet mushroom and cauliflower is an easy side dish to make for any meal! Cauliflower and mushrooms are two of my favourite foods and they go so well together, especially when combined with butter and garlic! This dish is really easy to make! You start by cooking whole button or cremini mushrooms in a large skillet until they have released their liquids, before adding the cauliflower to continue to cook until everything is nice and tender and golden brown! The seasoning for this dish is pretty simple with butter and garlic along with some earthy thyme. Some options for changing this up include adding things like red pepper flakes or parmesan, balsamic vinegar, parsley, lemon juice, etc. This butter-garlic mushrooms and cauliflower side is perfect for any meal and the fact that it’s made on the stovetop is often a bonus since oven time can be at a premium if the main is a roast.
