Blendability. A word describing a better way to use ground meat. Try adding delicious mushrooms to your next burger, meatloaf, meatball or patty. Trend to Blend is a campaign sponsored by The Mushroom Council .
By adding up to 50% ground sautéed mushrooms to ground meat you do more than stretch your dollar. Mushrooms add texture, reduce saturated fat and sodium content per burger. They are the only source of vitamin D in the produce aisle that is non-fortified. Mushrooms are the leading source of the essential antioxidant selenium, which protects body cells from damage that might lead to chronic diseases. Mushrooms also help to strengthen the immune system.
Next time you plan a meal with ground meat consider adding chopped mushrooms. Sauté mushrooms in oil and season with salt and pepper.

How much should you add to tacos or meatloaf?

Ground turkey and mushrooms sounded like a great combo to me. I decided to kick my turkey mushroom burger up a notch with sun-dried tomatoes, olives and feta cheese.

My burger turned out moist and juicy. No need for added sauce, mayo or ketchup. A toasted ciabatta bun, tender baby lettuce and sliced green onion made this a perfect lunch.
