Happy Tuesday Wednesday, y’all! Did you check out the Matzo and Herbed Stuffed Tomatoes from guest post from Sam Monday? It’s a good one! Today, as part of our Passover recipe round-up, I’m guest posting my Gluten Free Deep Fried Mushrooms for Passover over on Sarah’s blog Crispy Bits & Burnt Ends. Check it out! Sarah blogs about her adventures (successes and failures) in cooking, plus fun details on planning her wedding. Though Sarah is not a MOT (member of the tribe) her fiance is, which inspired these Ko-Jew Kimchee Latkes from Hanukkah time. Love it!!

Since Texas is the land of chicken fried steak and breakfast tacos, I am always looking for ways to adapt some local classics into Passover friendly noshes. I made some deep fried matzo balls a few weeks back and they were AWESOME, so I decided to fry some more with these mushrooms. Delicious! You could serve them with a creamy or tomato dipping sauce.

    The link for the actual recipe on crispybitsnburntends.com doesn’t work. I hope it gets fixed soon. These look amazing! I miss fried mushrooms!

    These look super yummy but can they be made Wheat Belly friendly? This is my first Pesach on the new diet my doctor has me on. I have to be GF, corn free, potato free and soy free. VERY hard during this season! Thank you so much!
