Mushrooms have a somewhat meaty texture, so they are a great, hearty ingredient to incorporate into your diet if you're a vegetarian. Mushrooms are very low in calories but provide fiber and other nutrients such as vitamin D and copper. This can be a perfect side dish or it can even be served as a main.
If you want this dish to be vegan, simply replace the butter with olive oil or vegan butter.

Raw mushrooms soak tend to soak up all the oil in the pan. Don't add more more oil or butter. After a few minutes, the mushrooms will begin to release a liquid, which will eventually evaporate while cooking.
