Try it: Name something that a portobello mushroom can’t do. You can grill them, bake them, fry them, swap them in for burger patties, throw them into veggie wraps, turn them into mini pizzas — the list goes on. Here at Kitchn, we’ve even gone as far as to call them the “steak of the vegetarian world.” They’re thick, meaty, absorb any kind of marinade, and perfectly cradle whatever stuffing you choose to stuff them with. These ‘shrooms go the distance. And these Caprese-stuffed garlic-butter portobello mushrooms from Cafe Delites are surging ahead of the pack.

There’s not a chia, hemp, or flax seed in sight, and I love that you can count the ingredients on one hand. Yes, it’s the smoothie your kids want, but it’s also the smoothie you secretly want — one that’s pure and simple, and all about the fruit.

If there was ever a grocery store shortcut worthy of an award, it’s the rotisserie chicken. I believe there are few things this fully cooked bird can’t do.

With their bright-green color, cucumbers lend themselves to a lot of visually appealing summer recipes, so there are a ton of good cucumber recipes on Pinterest.
I even found a tutorial for making cucumber roses. But of all the many cucumber recipes on Pinterest, the most popular one is this cucumber, onion, and tomato salad from a blog called Yummy Mommies. It’s been saved more than 34,000 times, and several people have posted photos of their attempts at making it.
