How to make Stuffed Mushrooms

Stuffed mushrooms are one of the most versatile dishes. They are great as appetizers or a meat replacement for lunch or dinner.

Ingredients

Here are some key ingredients used to make this delicious dish:

  • Portobello mushrooms – One of my favorite mushrooms because of their size and their flavor. They have a beautiful meaty texture and taste amazing with any seasoning you add to them.
  • Quinoa – Adds a lovely crunch factor along with a boost of extra protein for those healthy conscious foodies.
  • Almond Flour – Acts as a binder and also a flavor enhancer, giving an almost cheesy flavor to the filling.
  • Sweet peppers – Brings balance to the mixture with an addition of natural sweetness.
  • Onion and garlic – what would mushrooms do without onion?
  • Fresh herbs and Seasonings – Needed to bring the true flavor and spice to the dish and marry all the components together.

It sounds like a lot goes into this dish, and it sort of does, but it’s really quite easy to make.

Tips on Stuffing the Mushrooms

Before digging into the recipe, here are a few things that may be helpful when making the mushrooms:

  • Remove the mushroom guts – Removing the gills (the under parts of the cap) give you more room to stuff your mushrooms and can avoid any potential bitterness the gills may put out.
  • Oil the caps before baking – This will help prevent them from sticking to the pan.
  • Do not over stuff the mushrooms – It happens, I do it all the time, but try to avoid it or the caps will collapse and flatten.

Storing leftovers

As these are mushrooms they wont last very long. I give them 2 days tops in an air tight container at best. These cannot be frozen as mushrooms and moisture do not mix.
