Baby Bella mushrooms: Also known as cremini, portabellini, and mini Bella, baby Bella mushrooms are younger versions of portabella mushrooms, harvested earlier in their growing cycle. They have an excellent meaty taste and are great for air frying because they withstand high temperatures well. You can also use white mushrooms.

Shiitake mushrooms: have a deeper, richer flavor than other mushroom varieties, which is why they’re so fabulous in this broccoli and mushroom recipe! You can substitute them for oyster mushrooms or tempeh if you like it.

Broccoli: When choosing broccoli, look for dark green florets. Broccoli that has started to turn light green or yellow is past its best.

Coconut amino/low sodium soy sauce: Just as delicious as soy sauce and adding the same umami layer to your dish, coconut aminos are made by fermenting coconut palm sap.
