When I was in college, my friends often teased me about my lack of domestic skills.

You know…cooking, cleaning, that sort of thing.

Which is really funny (and pretty unbelievable now) that I was like that years ago because now, I feel like I rule the kitchen and house. Not that I’m all-knowing, but that I love to be in the kitchen…cooking, baking, recipe testing, etc. And that’s pretty obvious, right? I mean, I do have a food blog and all.

And cleaning! I love to clean! Yes, I’m one of those weirdos who enjoys cleaning the house, especially my kitchen. I make sure it’s spotless and sanitized every day.

Although I didn’t cook much in college (does toasting a bagel for a sandwich or heating a can of soup count?), there was one dish that I did cook every once in a while. And I’m not sure if you would even call it “cooking” but I loved to saute some mushrooms in butter and have it for dinner.

Sounds weird, I know, but I was and still am a mushroom fantastic! I didn’t eat them too often growing up, but now that I can make them on my own, I try to sneak them in whenever I can. That can be tricky since the hubster isn’t the biggest fan of mushrooms, though he will eat them on pizza and in chicken marsala (go figure, right?). But, that’s ok, because it means ALL of the mushrooms are for me. And that’s a win-win all around.

And now that my taste buds have evolved and I’ve learned my way around the kitchen, I’ve experiment with different ways of preparing mushrooms. I have to say that these Roasted Mushrooms with Garlic and Rosemary are my new favorite way to eat them.

It’s actually quite surprising that I don’t have more mushroom recipes on Pumpkin ‘N Spice, as it’s my favorite veggie (followed closely by asparagus). Well, I’m changing that today, friends, and I might just have another recipe or two up my sleeve.

I mentioned that I used to saute mushrooms when I was in college. I still do, but I also love to roast them. And since I’ve been on a roasting kick lately (remember these Roasted Lemon Garlic Green Beans?), it only seemed natural that I roast these babies.

If you’re a mushroom lover like I am, then I guarantee you’ll go crazy for these Roasted Mushrooms with Garlic and Rosemary. The mushrooms are tender, slightly caramelized, and loaded with garlic, fresh rosemary (my favorite herb!), thyme, salt and pepper. So flavorful and so delicious!

And the prep time couldn’t get any easier. Simply mix together some olive oil and the spices, then toss them together with the mushrooms and pop ’em into the oven. I sprinkled on some grated Parmesan cheese for garnish, just to make them extra special, but feel free to leave out the cheese if you prefer.

So if you’re looking for a new roasted veggie, these Roasted Mushrooms with Garlic and Rosemary are it!
