Serves 6
Large portobello mushrooms take the place of meat in the hearty vegetarian dish.
 
 
2pounds portobello mushrooms, stems removed and reserved
 
12ounces shiitake mushrooms, stems removed and reserved
 
1 1/2cups dry white wine
 
1ounce dried porcini mushrooms
 
8sprigs fresh thyme
 
2medium Yukon gold potatoes, peeled
 
12medium shallots, peeled
 
6cloves garlic, peeled
 
1teaspoon salt, plus more to taste
 
1/4teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
 
1pound thin asparagus, ends trimmed
 
1tablespoon chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
 
1ounce shaved Parmesan cheese, optional
 
Olive-oil cooking spray
 
 1.   Heat oven to 450°. Spray two roasting pans with cooking spray. Roughly chop reserved stems of portobello and shiitake; transfer to one pan. Arrange mushroom caps in second pan. Roast both pans 15 to 20 minutes until juices have been released. Remove pan with mushroom caps from oven, and set aside. Remove pan with stems, add white wine, and cook, stirring, over high heat 2 to 3 minutes; set aside.
 
 2.   Place porcini mushrooms in saucepan. Pour stems and liquid from roasting pan into saucepan. Add 4 cups water and 4 sprigs thyme. Cover; simmer 45 minutes. Strain through fine sieve lined with dampened cheesecloth. Press down on solids with spatula to rid mushrooms of excess liquid. Set aside. Discard solids.
 
 3.   Cut portobello caps in half; reserve. Slice potatoes into four-inch-long strips one-inch wide; set aside in cold water.
 
 4.   Spray bottom of large skillet with cooking spray. Add shallots and garlic; cover, and sauté over medium heat, turning, until brown, 5 to 8 minutes. Add reserved broth, remaining 4 sprigs thyme, salt, pepper, all reserved caps, and collected juices. Drain potatoes; add to broth. Simmer, covered, until potatoes and shallots are soft, 15 to 20 minutes, stirring once.
 
 5.   Meanwhile, blanch asparagus in boiling water just until bright green, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to ice water to stop cooking; drain. Add asparagus to broth; cook until heated through, 3 to 5 minutes. Garnish with parsley and shaved Parmesan.

Why is the fiber lower than what the nutritional information says?
Weight Watchers modified the point system plan, where you can only count 4 grams of fiber for any food item, and the rest is ignored.  This modification was because people were abusing it and eating high fiber foods in order to make the points seem lower.
