Mouthwatering Recipe: Savory Pesto Stuffed Mushrooms

Today’s Creation: Savory Pesto Stuffed Mushrooms

Hey there, fellow foodies! Today, I’m excited to share a recipe that’s perfect for a cozy night in or a special gathering with friends. These savory pesto stuffed mushrooms are bursting with flavor and are sure to impress even the pickiest of eaters.

To start off, you’ll need the following ingredients:

• 6 large portobello mushrooms
• 150g basil pesto
• 50g sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
• 100g feta cheese, crumbled
• 50g breadcrumbs
• 30ml olive oil
• Salt and pepper to taste

Now, let’s gather our kitchen tools:

• mixing bowl
• baking sheet
• knife
• spoon

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Clean the mushrooms and remove the stems, then place them on the baking sheet with the cap side down.

In a mixing bowl, combine the basil pesto, sun-dried tomatoes, feta cheese, breadcrumbs, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Mix everything together until well combined.

Using a spoon, generously fill each mushroom cap with the pesto mixture, pressing down gently to pack it in. Once all the mushrooms are stuffed, place them in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender and the filling is golden brown.

Once cooked, remove the mushrooms from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving. The aroma of the basil pesto and sun-dried tomatoes will have your mouth watering in no time.

This recipe makes 6 servings, with each stuffed mushroom weighing approximately 120g. One serving is roughly 180 calories, making it a delicious and guilt-free appetizer or side dish.

A clever tip for these savory pesto stuffed mushrooms is to sprinkle a bit of extra feta cheese on top before baking for an added burst of flavor and a beautiful cheesy crust.

I hope you enjoy making and devouring these savory pesto stuffed mushrooms! Feel free to get creative with the ingredients and make this recipe your own. Happy cooking!
