I am honored that my Rabbit on the Range is mentioned here. Testers: you can substitute chicken for rabbit in this recipe if it makes it easier to get ingredients...rabbit is one of those "tastes like chicken" ingredients. (actually rabbit is much richer in flavor)

Thanks for EP for my Paella Verdura. .I created this dish for my vegetarian friends so they could share the "Paella Experience" - layers of flavors ,richness, color, and texture. Can't wait to hear comments!

mystic mushroom paella, please
over 2 years ago Sagegreen
Thanks so much for selecting this. I hope you can find some wonderful mushrooms to work with! Oregon Mushrooms was very accommodating to me, but if you are in New York, you no doubt have amazing sources. I do highly recommend generous fresh ginger tones for the broth, too! Hope you like it.

so glad you liked the scallop andouille!!

Thanks for nominating my mushroom paella! I also have to pass as a tester this week, as much as I would enjoy offering.

I might suggest possible substitutions of portabella and shitake mushrooms, if the wonderful matsutake and crimini are not available.

Shoot, it looks like dymynyno already snagged that one (but feel free to add your notes in the recipe's comments section). Are there any others you'd like to test?

Sorry, missed that! I'll try another time.
