Oyster Mushrooms Swiss Chard and Spaghetti Recipe

For my birthday, my sister-in-law and brother bought me this Mushroom mini farm (Affiliate Link).  This is the box I received.  "Cool!  I had never made mushrooms before. So, let's give it a try." I thought to myself. Then, the very next day, I went home and I started.  I had to cut a cross in the plastic bag and soak the mushroom packet upside down for 8 hours.  I ended up soaking it for 10 hours, oops. Then, each day for 10 days, I needed to add a teaspoon of water into the opening area, and then I waited.  And, waited. It takes 10 days to get your mushrooms. Here is how long it took me to wait for my oyster mushrooms and how I made this Oyster Mushrooms Swiss Chard and Spaghetti Recipe.

7-day Oyster Mushrooms growth image

Wow. I can't believe how much it grew within just seven days.

10-day Oyster Mushrooms growth image

They grow a lot in just 10 days—WOW! They are very plump and long at the stem.

Wow, it really grew. It grew so large in three days.  If you do make these, be sure to cook them right away on the 10th day.  They seem to go downhill fast after they mature. If you want to buy this mushroom's farm, I added a link to Amazon: Organic Mushroom Mini Farm (USDA Certified Organic Oyster Mushrooms). It's a great gift for the gardener in your life.

Pulled Veggies from Garden

I harvested my Swiss chard and my grape tomatoes from my garden (updated in 2021 to this) and thought it would be great with these oyster mushrooms.

Here is how I made my Oyster Mushrooms and Swiss Chard with Spaghetti recipe. I hope you try it and share the recipe with others. 

Oyster Mushrooms, Swiss Chard, and Spaghetti Ingredients

1 package Spaghetti - I used gluten-free
1 cup Grape or cherry tomatoes halved
2 cups Swiss chard - Remove vain and slice into strips
1.5 cups of Oyster mushrooms cut in half any larger pieces
1 cup Onion (yellow) - chopped
2 cloves Garlic - minced
1 teaspoon Red Pepper flakes
One tablespoon Olive Oil (Affiliate Link)
1 tablespoon dairy-free butter spread(affiliate) or butter
One teaspoon of aged Balsamic Vinegar (affiliate)
Salt and Pepper to taste
Grated Parmesan Cheese for topping

Oyster Mushrooms Swiss Chard and Spaghetti Instructions

First, add olive oil (Affiliate Link), butter or butter spread, and garlic into a warm skillet for 3 minutes.

Then, add the onions and red pepper flakes to the skillet and cook until the onions are tender, for about 3 minutes.

Start water for spaghetti and bring to a boil.

Add the oyster mushroom and cook for about 4 minutes or until cooked.

Don't they look delicious when they are finished!

Next, add cut-in-half tomatoes and cook for about 3 minutes or until cooked.

Now, add the clean, removed vein and sliced Swiss Chard to the skillet. Add salt and pepper to taste.

When the spaghetti is ready, drain it, add it to the skillet with the other cooked veggies, and toss. Then add a drizzle of aged Balsamic Vinegar and toss again. If it is a little dry, add more olive or butter. If you want, you can add Parmesan cheese.
