Three-Cheese Stuffed Mushrooms

Three-Cheese Stuffed Mushrooms

I whipped up a batch of these and went out to run an errand. I planned on having the family test it out later. Came home and all that was left was an empty pan on the counter. The end.

YIELDS 18 STUFFED MUSHROOMS

• 18 mushrooms, stems removed
• 1 Tbsp butter
• ¹⁄₂ cup finely diced onion
• 1 clove garlic, crushed
• 7 oz (200 g) riced cauliflower
• 4 oz (110 g) brick cream cheese
• ¹⁄₄ cup grated Parmesan cheese
• ²⁄₃ cup shredded cheddar or Mexican blend cheese
• ¹⁄₄ cup chopped fresh parsley, divided
• ¹⁄₂ tsp salt
• ¹⁄₄ tsp black pepper

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Spray a 9×13-inch (20×30-cm) baking pan with cooking spray. Place the mushrooms in the pan. Melt butter in a large frying pan over medium heat. Add onion and garlic and sauté for 5 minutes. Add riced cauliflower and sauté additional 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add all three cheeses and stir until melted and combined. Turn off heat and stir in 3 Tbsp chopped parsley, salt, and pepper. Fill each mushroom cap generously with cauliflower-cheese filling. Bake for 20 minutes until lightly browned and cooked through. Sprinkle with remaining parsley and serve.

Note: These can be prepared in advance and refrigerated for up to three days.
