Congrats on your weight loss!


You could sautee them in extra virgin olive oil. One tablespoon will typically run you 120 calories and it does have quite a bit of fat, but it is considered to be healthy fat (monounsaturated). It also has antioxidants and vitamins and if you think about how big of a part it plays in Mediterranean diets, in which people are typically very healthy, you can see that it is good for you in moderation. I use olive oil when making stirfry meals and it is delicious, just try to limit the amount that you use if you're watching your weight. Canola oil is a similar option. You could also try using nonstick cooking spray and adding more vegetables and seasonings to get flavor without the oil.

Why not simply steam them. They're just as delicious-in fact, you're getting pure mushroom flavor, and not the flavor of the oil. I don't like ';fashionable'; mushrooms-a lot are simply overrated. I stick to the big, white capped traditional variety that grow in ground up horse manure in caves in Pennsylvania.





Butter, applied super sparingly, is superior to oil, if you were to want some sort of cooking accompaniment.
You can use Flaxseed oil. It is one of the healthiest oils you can use and it has very little taste so it won't take away from the flavor of the mushrooms. Remember to keep flaxseed oil refrigerated.
If its extra virgin olive oil than yes. Its heart healthy and has lots of antioxidants.
i have heard extra virgin olive oil is best
