June 14 - A Delectable Mushroom Sauce for Steaks And Salmon

Creating mushroom sauce without the use of Campbell's cream of mushroom is a challenge.

Kids do not like a strong mushroom taste. So when preparing the sauce with thinly sliced fresh button mushroom, I tried not to overcook the mushroom.

It's great with filet mignon and salmon, as well.
