This is a really good recipe and so easy. My family asks for it regularly.

Three Ingredient Slow Cooker Ranch Mushrooms

1 pound fresh mushrooms

1 stick butter

1 envelope Ranch salad dressing mix

Use a damp paper towel or dish rag to gently brush off any visible dirt from the mushrooms. Do not wash mushrooms or place under running water as it will cause them to turn color and hold too much moisture.

Layer mushrooms in your slow cooker

Melt butter in microwave bowl and stir ranch dressing into the melted butter. Pour butter/ranch dressing mixture over the mushrooms.

6. Cook on low setting 3 to 4 hours or on high for 1-2 hours.

Once the mushrooms are cooked, if time allows, remove lid and let some of the liquid evaporate to intensify the flavors. If not, save the liquid to use in other recipes such as chili or soup. A great way to save it is to freeze blocks in an old ice cube tray. Once frozen, remove and store in a baggie. Grab one or two cubes and toss in any dish.
