Ingredients

  • 1 lb button mushrooms 450 g
  • 2 Tbsp oil 30 mL
  • ½ yellow onion finely diced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 Tbsp fresh thyme leaves
  • ½ cup Italian breadcrumbs 60 g
  • ¼ cup cream cheese 50 g
  • ¼ cup grated parmesan 30 g
  • ¼ cup finely chopped fresh parsley 20 g
  • ¼ tsp each salt and pepper

Instructions

  • Prep Mushrooms: Preheat oven to 400°F (204°C). Wipe the dirt off of each mushroom. Pluck out the stems and chop them up finely. Place the mushroom caps on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
    A baking tray lined with parchment paper holds rows of raw, hollowed-out mushrooms, all positioned with their caps facing down—perfectly prepped for making delicious vegetarian stuffed mushrooms.
  • Flavor Base: Heat oil in a large saute pan over medium heat, then add onion, garlic, and thyme. Cook until onion is soft, about 3 minutes.
  • Add Stems: Add chopped mushroom stems to the pan of onions and continue cooking until they release their moisture, about 5 to 10 minutes.
    A frying pan contains chopped mushrooms on one side and diced onions on the other, set on an orange surface—perfect ingredients for preparing delicious vegetarian stuffed mushrooms.
  • Filling: Remove from heat and stir in all remaining ingredients. Carefully spoon a bit of filling into each hollowed out mushroom.
    A baking tray with hollowed-out mushrooms on parchment paper, perfect for preparing vegetarian stuffed mushrooms, sits beside a pan of chopped vegetable filling and a spoon.
  • Bake: Bake for 15 minutes, or until golden brown.
