    – All mushrooms must be well cooked. Raw mushrooms will not be allowed in any dish.
    – Use only one species of mushroom in each dish.
    – A written recipe prominently showing the species of mushroom in the dish and the cook’s name MUST
    accompany each dish.

PLEASE BRING A FEW OF YOUR RECIPE MUSHROOMS COOKED, IF YOU CAN, SO WE CAN
TASTE THE MUSHROOM ALONE BEFORE FEASTING. INCLUDE THE NAME OF THE
MUSHROOM. THIS IS NOT REQUIRED!

Those who have no time to cook or cannot cook may bring drinks, desserts, salads, or bread
(prepared food from the grocery is fine.) Here are a couple Websites for fabulous recipe ideas.
