Crimini Mushrooms

Health and fertility benefits of Stuffed Peppers Greek Style

Crimini mushrooms are a tasty way of loading up on vitamins B2. Vitamin B2 plays an integral role in normal thyroid function and metabolism, which is vital for those with PCOS, as those with the disorder also tend to have a thyroid that doesn’t produce sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) in sufficient quantities (Reference: http://www.thyroiduk.org.uk/tuk/treatment/vitamins.html). Getting sufficient Vitamin B2 allows androgen and testosterone to be better restrained, preventing them from causing a whole host of undesired symptoms from thinning scalp hair to acne.

1 cup meatless crumbles
1/2 cup crimini mushrooms, sliced
1/2 tsp minced garlic
1/2 cup Italian style tomatoes, diced
2 oz orzo pasta, cooked
1 oz feta cheese
