Skip the white buttons and portabellos and opt for immune-building shiitakes, maitakes (also known as hen-of-the-woods), and porcinis. Shiitakes and porcinis are known for their cancer-fighting power, while maitakes help lower blood pressure and blood sugar (great for those with diabetes).
Use these mushrooms for their low-calorie, intense flavor. Rehydrate them in water and then add (with their strained, flavored liquid) to risottos, stir-fries, sautes, and tomato sauces.
