Garlic Mushrooms

This is a very healthy and quick veggie to make. Mushrooms have a low glycemic index.

2 cloves Garlic
½ tsp salt
2 tbls extra virgin olive oil
1 pound (453 grams) fresh white or brown mushroom
1 tbls fresh lemon juice or balsamic vinegar
2 tbls finely chopped parsley

In a small bowl combine garlic, salt and pepper. Set aside.
Heat a large skillet or sauté pan over medium heat for 1 to 2 minutes.
Add the oil to the pan and allow it to heat up for 20 seconds.
Add the mushroom to the pan. Use a wooden spoon to stir the mushrooms and coat the oil.
Cook the mushrooms, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are cooked through and lightly browned for 5 minutes.
Add the garlic mixture to the pan and cook, stirring continuously for 1 minute.
Add the lemon juice or balsamic vinegar (if using) and stir.
Turn off the heat and stir in the parsley.
Serve immediately.
