Ingredients
  

  • 12 large white mushrooms stems removed
  • 4 oz cream cheese softened
  • 4 oz Longhorn cheese shredded
  • 2 tbsp butter melted
  • 1/4 cup breadcrumbs or gluten-free breadcrumbs for a low-carb option
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • 1 tbsp fresh parsley chopped
  • 1 tbsp fresh thyme optional
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese optional for topping

Equipment

  • Baking sheet
  • Sauté Pan
  • Mixing bowl
  • Spoon

Method
 

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Prepare Mushroom Caps: Clean the mushrooms with a damp cloth and remove the stems. Set the caps aside on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Finely chop the mushroom stems.
  3. Sauté the Stems: In a sauté pan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the chopped mushroom stems and garlic. Sauté for about 5 minutes, or until the mixture becomes soft and fragrant. Remove from heat.
  4. Make the Stuffing: In a mixing bowl, combine the sautéed mushroom stems, cream cheese, Longhorn cheese, breadcrumbs, fresh parsley, thyme, salt, and pepper. Mix until everything is well combined.
  5. Stuff the Mushrooms: Spoon the stuffing mixture into the mushroom caps, pressing gently to ensure the filling stays in place. Optionally, sprinkle with Parmesan cheese for an extra golden topping.
  6. Bake: Place the stuffed mushrooms in the oven and bake for about 20 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender and the stuffing is golden brown.
  7. Serve: Once done, remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes. Serve warm as an appetizer or side dish!

Notes

  • Make Ahead: You can prepare the mushrooms in advance by stuffing them and refrigerating them until ready to bake. Just add a few extra minutes to the cook time if baking from cold.
  • Cheese Variations: Feel free to swap out the Longhorn cheese for another type of melty cheese like cheddar or Monterey Jack if you prefer.
  • Gluten-Free: Use gluten-free breadcrumbs or skip the breadcrumbs altogether for a low-carb or gluten-free option.
