I divided the recipe in half and they were delicious and quite filling. I used slices of fresh mozzarella cheese and I cheated and used frozen spinach. But otherwise they were made as written. I served them with long grain wild rice. Made for Billboard tag.

Delicious. Easy to put together. Really liked the bit of tang from the vinegar. Made a perfect light lunch. Going to try them on the outdoor grill when the weather gets nicer.

Lovely presentation. I served these as a side dish for Sunday Brunch. I cut the recipe back to two mushrooms. Next time I make them I will add a few drops of hot sauce - but that's me I like spicy. They are great the way they are.
