Ingredients:
- 12 large white or cremini mushrooms, stems removed and cleaned
- 4 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (plus extra for garnish)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional, for a bit of heat)
- 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese (for topping)
Instructions:
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Prepare the Mushrooms: Clean the mushroom caps and remove the stems. Set the mushroom caps aside on the prepared baking sheet. Finely chop the stems and set them aside for the filling.
- Make the Filling: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, shredded mozzarella, minced garlic, chopped mushroom stems, fresh parsley, onion powder, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using). Stir until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Stuff the Mushrooms: Spoon the cream cheese mixture into each mushroom cap, packing the filling in generously.
- Bake the Mushrooms: Drizzle the olive oil over the stuffed mushrooms and sprinkle the remaining grated Parmesan cheese on top of the filling. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender and the cheese is melted and golden brown.
- Serve: Remove from the oven and garnish with additional fresh parsley before serving.
