MUSHROOM SKULLS PREPARATION

Clean the mushrooms and trim the end. Use a straw to cut out the two eye sockets on each side and a toothpick to remove the excess. Using the same toothpick, carve the nose below along the teeth on the mushroom stem. Set aside.

GARLIC MURSHROOMS PREPARATION

In a medium sauce pan, add the olive oil and chopped garlic. Turn the heat to medium-low. Once the garlic is sizzling, add the roasted garlic and chive herb blend. Season with Salt and Pepper (to taste). Give it a stir.

Add the mushrooms "face" up, pour the vegetable stock on top, along with the butter and sprinkle around the chopped parsley. Let the mushrooms cook for 2 minutes on one side then turn them over, and cook them on the other side for another 2 minutes. Remove from the heat. Set aside.
