Health benefits of Mushrooms and Sweet Corn
Mushrooms are one of the best meat substitutes for the vegetarians and vegans. Many people stay away from consuming this fungi(biologically mushrooms are Fungi) due misconception that these are poisonous. Always buy mushrooms from good stores in case you want to try it for the first time. Nowadays a variety of mushrooms are used in various cuisines and in so many versatile ways. Add to stir frys, soups, rice preparations like fried rice, biryanis,make curries, use as toppings on pizza, fillings for sandwiches, kebabs, tikkas ... and the list goes on.
Mushrooms are enriched with nutrients also. These are fat free, rich in antioxidants, minerals and vitamins. Loaded with fibres the water content in mushroom is around 85-90%.
I usually use Button Mushroom variety, as my kids also okay with it. Though they are not the fan of mushroom but they don't mind it soups, fried rice. I love mushrooms and love to try out different recipes with it.

Sweet corn is mostly used as vegetable but it is actually a grain. Rich in carbohydrates, vitamins(Vit. B12) , minerals. Corn Cob is popular for snacking (grilled/boiled). Corn Kernels are added in soups, salads, fried rice. Boiled corn kernels with butter and different seasonings are a favourite among all the age groups.
