Ingredients
- 12 large white mushrooms
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/4 cup finely grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/4 cup breadcrumbs
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/4 cup cream cheese, softened
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy clean-up.
- Clean the mushrooms by gently wiping them with a damp paper towel. Remove the stems carefully and set the mushroom caps aside.
- Chop the stems finely and place them in a mixing bowl. This will add extra flavor to the filling.
- In the mixing bowl with the mushroom stems, add the olive oil, Parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, minced garlic, chopped parsley, salt, black pepper, and dried oregano. Mix well until all ingredients are combined.
- Add the cream cheese to the mushroom stem mixture and mix until combined. The cream cheese will add a creamy texture to the stuffing.
- Spoon the mixture into each mushroom cap, pressing down gently to pack the filling. Be sure not to overfill.
- Place the stuffed mushroom caps onto the prepared baking sheet. Ensure they have a little space between them for even baking.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender and the tops are golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Serve warm for the best flavor. Tip: Garnish with extra fresh parsley for a pop of color and flavor.
