This recipe was added as a bonus recipe in my "It's All About the Lion's Mane" e-book. These little wonton pockets are loaded with flavor and are easy to make for a quick snack. The creamy, savory filling pairs perfectly with sweet chili sauce, so dip these for an extra tasty treat.

Mushrooms are incredible, and learning more about each species fascinates me. I have been trying to grow snow oyster mushrooms for about a year. Every time they started to pin, they stopped growing and turned dry and brown. I moved to the desert, and the weather is colder at night than in San Diego. I placed the North Spore fruiting block into a chest outdoors and sprayed it daily since I still needed to set my grow tent up at the new place. Surprisingly, the snow oysters grew, and I got a big flush/harvest. They finally grew because the weather was colder outside at night than in my house. Snow oysters love to fruit in colder weather at 45-65°F. Now, fruiting blocks are meant to grow in tents, but I learned you can succeed in different environments. Also, mushrooms are like fruits and vegetables because they can thrive in seasons. I am starting a new journey with growing mushrooms in 2024. I will learn how to grow outdoors in my soon-to-be garden and how to reuse the growing blocks after I have grown mushrooms indoors. Let's learn together. As for this, how do Snow Oysters taste? I couldn't taste a difference, but I love the texture. They are less chewy and buttery. But that's just me. They were perfect for this Chili Pepper Passion Fruit Sauce. OMG, we could not stop eating them.

When I first went vegan, I typically used jackfruit when I wanted to make pulled "pork", but this sandwich is elevated with Lion's Mane. I love to crisp up the Lion's Mane in the oven and then coat it with the sauce for the perfect texture. Hope you enjoy!

When I decided to go vegan, one of the first things that came to mind was, "What are you going to do about bacon???" In the initial phases of my transition, bacon and cheese were the two most challenging foods to let go of. Fast forward to today. I am blessed to see that the struggle was only temporary. Now we make bacon out of mushrooms and we don't miss the old stuff.

Dive into the flavors of the sea with this Mediterranean Pink Oyster Mushroom Fish(less) Sandwich, which features savory Caper Feta Spread and rich balsamic vinegar for the perfect flavor blast.

I finally figured out the secret to perfect kale is to give it a massage with a bit of olive oil, salt, and lemon juice. Whoever said, don't play with your food, didn't have nearly as much fun as us. I hope you enjoy this simple salad, made with a tangy, umami sauce.
