Ingredients
12 oz white mushrooms, sliced or chopped (340g)
1 tsp salt, divided
¼ tsp pepper

Instructions
-
In a large skillet over medium heat, sauté mushrooms, bell pepper, and onion with half the salt (½ tsp) until tender and mushrooms release juices, about 5-7 minutes.

Stir in Worcestershire sauce and garlic, mix well, cook 1-2 minutes more.

Sprinkle cheese evenly over skillet mixture. Reduce heat to low, cover skillet, and melt cheese for 3-5 minutes until bubbly.
