• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Clean the mushrooms and gently remove the stems, setting the caps aside. Finely chop the stems.

Step 3

Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped mushroom stems and minced garlic. Sauté until softened, about 3-4 minutes.

In a medium bowl, combine the sautéed mushroom stems, cream cheese, chopped parsley, grated Parmesan, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well incorporated.

Step 5

Fill each mushroom cap with the cream cheese mixture, slightly mounding it on top.

Step 6

In a small bowl, mix the breadcrumbs and 1 tablespoon of Parmesan cheese. Sprinkle this mixture over the stuffed mushrooms.

Step 7

Place the stuffed mushrooms on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a lightly greased baking dish.

Step 8

Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender and the tops are golden brown.

Step 9

Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with additional chopped parsley if desired.
