Warm Roasted Mushroom And Feta Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large frying pan, add the mushrooms and sauté over a high heat for 5 mins stirring occasionally until pale golden.
• Add the garlic, thyme and lemon juice and seasoning to taste, stir well then remove from the heat.
• Arrange the lettuce in a large bowl, scatter over the remaining ingredients, then add the mushrooms and all the pan juices.
• Toss to mix and serve with crusty bread.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F. Cook bacon in heavy large skillet until crisp, about 8 minutes. Transfer bacon to paper towels to drain. Coarsely crumble bacon. Discard all but 1/4 cup plus 2 teaspoons bacon fat (adding olive oil if necessary to equal that amount).
• Heat 2 teaspoons reserved bacon fat in heavy medium skillet over medium heat. Add chopped onion and sauté until tender, about 5 minutes. Transfer to medium bowl and cool; mix in bacon, spinach, feta, cream cheese, and crushed red pepper. Season filling to taste with salt and pepper.
• Line 2 large rimmed baking sheets with foil. Toss mushrooms and reserved 1/4 cup bacon fat in large bowl to coat. Sprinkle mushrooms with salt and pepper. Place mushrooms, rounded side down, in single layer on prepared baking sheets. Bake mushrooms until centers fill with liquid, about 25 minutes. Turn mushrooms over. Bake mushrooms until brown and liquid evaporates, about 20 minutes longer. Turn mushrooms over again. Spoon 1 heaping teaspoon filling into each mushroom cavity. (Filled mushrooms can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)
• Preheat oven to 375°F. Bake mushrooms until heated through, about 10 minutes. Transfer mushrooms to platter and serve warm.

Steps:

• Stir the Caesar salad dressing, ranch salad dressing, olive oil, canola oil, lemon juice, basil, and sugar together in a small bowl; set aside.
• Rinse the stuffed olives, shake off excess water, then cut each olive in half. Combine the olives, lettuce, mushrooms, and feta cheese in a mixing bowl. Drizzle with the salad dressing, and toss to coat. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese to serve.
