Can I have mushrooms on the keto diet?

Yes! Mushrooms are not only super low in carbs, but they also offer 1.8 g. of protein, only 19 calories and 313 mg (8% daily value) of potassium, according to the USDA.

So, how many carbs are in sautéed portobello mushrooms?

Portobello mushrooms (like the ones in this recipe) have only 2.2 g. net carbs per entire cup, making them perfect for the keto or low carb diet.

For one serving of this recipe, the total carb count is only 3 g per serving.

What can I serve with these buttery Italian mushrooms?

These simple and easy, one-pan mushrooms go well with just any protein. Some of my favorites are:

  • A juicy steak
  • Easy Keto Chicken Wings (5 flavors!)
  • Easy Air Fryer Chicken Thighs (in 3 Steps!)

How do I sauté mushrooms?

The word sauté literally means to fry quickly and this recipe is no exception. In as little as 5-6 minutes, you’ll have completed the entire recipe.

How to cook mushrooms in butter

It’s as easy as 1-2-3!

  1. To start, use 2 tablespoons of butter, melted on medium heat.
  2. Next, add in your whole mushrooms (don’t forget to wash and allow them to dry first).
  3. Finally, add in the garlic and Italian seasonings and allow some simmer time (about 3-5 minutes).

Can I use white mushrooms instead of baby portobellos?

Yes, if white mushrooms is what you have on-hand, feel free to use those instead.

I find baby Bellas have a bit more flavor, so be sure to season your white mushrooms accordingly.

Additionally, you may need to add in a bit extra seasoning, garlic or butter depending on your taste preference.
