Ingredients

• 16 whole Button mushrooms
• 4 ounces Cream cheese
• 1 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
• 2 cloves Garlic
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 cup Breadcrumbs

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Clean the button mushrooms with a damp cloth to remove any dirt. Remove the stems from the mushroom caps and finely chop the stems.

Step 3

In a medium-sized skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped mushroom stems and cook for 3-4 minutes until they release their juices and start to soften.

Step 4

Mince the garlic cloves and add them to the skillet. Cook for another 2 minutes until the garlic is fragrant.

Step 5

In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked mushroom stems and garlic with cream cheese, Parmesan cheese, and finely chopped fresh parsley. Stir well to create a creamy filling.

Step 6

Season the filling with salt and black pepper to taste.

Step 7

Using a spoon, fill each mushroom cap generously with the cream cheese mixture.

Step 8

In a small bowl, mix together the breadcrumbs and remaining tablespoon of olive oil until the breadcrumbs are coated.

Step 9

Sprinkle a small amount of the breadcrumb mixture on top of each filled mushroom cap.

Step 10

Place the filled mushroom caps on the prepared baking sheet, and bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until the mushrooms are cooked through and the tops are golden brown.

Step 11

Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Garnish with extra parsley if desired. Enjoy your savory mushroom bites!
