Mushrooms and Peppers with Wine and Herbs

Low Carb Menu #1Liver Shrinking Diet

This side dish can be made with wine or stock, or water, and any herb or herb mixture you like. You can also make it with any color peppers. I like the look, taste, and nutrition in red and yellow peppers.

Preparation:

Heat the oil in the pan on medium-high, and add the mushrooms. Cook until they begin to brown and add the peppers. Cook for 2-3 minutes, and then add salt and pepper, and the garlic and herbs.
