For the Mushrooms
- 16 oz portobello mushrooms
For the Filling
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup powdered parmesan cheese
- 1/3 cup sour cream
- 1/4 teaspoon oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon basil
For Garnish
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit to prepare for baking the mushrooms.
- Prepare Mushrooms: Rinse and dry the portobello mushrooms thoroughly, then carefully remove the stems to create space for the filling.
- Arrange Mushrooms: Place the mushroom caps, gill-side up, in a baking dish to hold the filling during baking.
- Mix Filling: In a mixing bowl, beat together the cream cheese, powdered parmesan, sour cream, oregano, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, and basil until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Stuff Mushrooms: Using a spoon, fill each mushroom cap generously with the cheese and herb mixture, evenly distributing it among all mushrooms.
- Bake: Bake the stuffed mushrooms in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and the filling is heated through.
- Garnish and Serve: Remove the mushrooms from the oven and garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving to add a fresh, vibrant touch.
Notes
- If portobello mushrooms are large, you may need to adjust the filling quantities or use fewer mushrooms to fit your baking dish.
- For extra flavor, consider adding a sprinkle of grated mozzarella or cheddar cheese on top before baking.
- Make sure to dry mushrooms well after rinsing to prevent sogginess during baking.
- These stuffed mushrooms can be served as an appetizer, side dish, or a light vegetarian main course.
