Stuffed Mushrooms

I have had more people ask me for my Stuffed Mushrooms recipe than any other, so I decided to cook it up as a dinner side. Here's the recipe so you can impress your friends with your culinary expertise.

stuffed mushrooms

Ingredients
12 open cap mushrooms
4 spring onions - minced
2 tsp. olive oil
3.5 oz. bread crumbs
1 tsp. fresh oregano
3.5 oz. feta cheese

Method
  1. Sautee chopped mushroom stalks + onions in oil until browned.
  2. Mix stalks, onions, bread crumbs, cheese and oregano in a bowl and set aside.
  3. Pack the stuffing mix in the open caps and bake @ 350deg. F 8-10 minutes.
Notes (important!)
  • The mixture should be dry. If it is too dry, and I mean too dry, you may add a small addition of oil.
  • Resist any temptations to use salt+pepper.. they will not bring anything to this dish.
  • Substitutions for this recipe are numerous, for example last time I omitted the oregano by simply using Italian bread crumbs.
  • Another idea is replacing feta cheese with Italian sausage.
