Ingredients

  • 1620 white or cremini mushrooms, stems removed
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley or chives, chopped
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste
  • Optional: 2 tbsp breadcrumbs for topping

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Clean mushrooms with a damp paper towel and remove stems. Finely chop the stems.
  3. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Sauté chopped mushroom stems and garlic for 3–4 minutes until soft. Remove from heat.
  4. In a bowl, combine cream cheese, mozzarella, Parmesan, sautéed stems, herbs, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
  5. Spoon the mixture into each mushroom cap, slightly mounding the filling.
  6. Optional: Sprinkle breadcrumbs over the top for a crunchy finish.

  9. Garnish with additional herbs and serve warm.

Notes

Make ahead by prepping the mushrooms a day in advance and baking just before serving.To avoid soggy mushrooms, pre-bake caps for 5 minutes or bake on a wire rack.Add chopped cooked sausage or jalapeños for variation.Use gluten-free breadcrumbs for a gluten-free version.
