Healthy ways to cook Morels

[Whisker Trout Slayer]

Since I had great response to the healthy fish cooking topic, so I decided to create another one for another of our favorite outdoor foods.

I have had Morel Muchrooms fried in butter and also fried with a egg cracker batter. What are healthy ways to eat these little morsels? I think this week with a little moisture and warmer temps should get them popping in North Central Iowa (nothing so far).

How about frying them in olive oil instead of butter?

Anyone?

I can't believe its not butter?

imo just cook them in butter, just use as little as needed

a tablespoon (1/8th of a stick) has only 12 grams of fat, and the mushrooms aren't going to absorb all of it.

If you ate a 6 ounce steak, it'd have about 24 grams of fat - so personally I'd just make the rest of the meal low-fat and enjoy the rich butter-sauteed mushrooms!

I'm a morel rookie but all of the morels I made were sprayed with Pam and cooked in tinfoil on the grill. Wanted the full flavor and holy cow were they good!
