3 garlic cloves, minced
4 Tbsp lemon juice
Small bunch of fresh parsley
1/4 cup of the marinade (oil and tamari)

Raw Coach Top Tips:

• Serve with salad, crackers, in wraps, or as filling in hollowed out tomatoes or other vegetables.
• If you don’t have time to marinade the mushrooms first don’t worry. Simply add the mushrooms as they are (washed, nothing added) and add a Tablespoon of olive oil and tamari. Taste test to see if it suits you; add additional oil, tamari or mushrooms depending on your taste.
