Mushrooms are the answer for stretching your grocery dollars in Country Living’s Cheap Dinner Ideas That Help Stretch Your Food Budget, featuring a Mushroom Pot Pie and Risotto with Mushrooms and Parmesan among the top recommendations.

Martha Stewart/ Yahoo!Life further encourages summertime grilling sharing 20 Fruits and Vegetables That Taste Surprisingly Delicious Grilled and of course, Mushrooms made the list! But think beyond  grilling portabellas. The editor suggests, “my pick for a big mushroom is a maitake, which can be grilled like a steak for a vegan main.”

On the trade side, FreshPlaza notes Grilling Season Offers Opportunities to Increase Mushroom Consumption. The article encourages retailers to offer in-store promotions to drive sales during the summer. “…items like sweet corn and watermelons are often part of in-store promotions. Why not include mushrooms in these promotions.”
