Photo of sliced mushrooms and bell peppers in a microwave-safe bowl 1. Place the mushrooms and bell peppers in a microwave-safe bowl (4 liter or 4 quart).

2. In a separate bowl, place all the marinade ingredients and mix well until the sugar completely dissolves. Pour the marinade over the mushrooms.

3. Cover with a vented microwave lid. Cook on HIGH (1200W) for 8 – 10 minutes.

4. Take out and mix. Let stand 10 – 12 minutes. Remove the bay leave and serve.

* When using plastic wrap for a lid, poke a hole in the center to release the steam.
* Mushrooms are high in vitamin D, which enhances building bone cells and they are low in calories. <Marinated Mushrooms> can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 1 month. Why not make double the amount and store them?
