Learn how to roast mushrooms in the oven! These easy roasted mushrooms have a meaty texture and rich, savory flavor. They're a delicious side dish!

Roasted mushrooms are underrated. Prove me wrong: when you have mushrooms you need to use up in the fridge, is roasting the first way you think to cook them? My guess is not.

They’re crisp around the edges, meaty in the middle, and packed with savory, umami flavor. Plus, they roast on a single sheet pan in under 30 minutes.
