"These mushroom caps are quick to whip together and so tasty. They are great as an appetizer, or as an entree with a side salad. They are a crowd pleaser, and great to make for holiday entertaining. You can also use the smaller mushrooms and divide the filling between the mushrooms you are using. "

These are good for an appetizer but they are also wonderful using large portabellos to have for lunch. We liked them with pasta with garlic and Parmesan cheese and breadsticks for a very satisfying meal!

Great, easy, tasty recipe. The mushrooms have some crunch with garlic overtones. I got them ready in the AM (Hot Weather), popped them in the oven 10 minutes before serving as a side dish to a mozza burger. Lovely recipe thanks Linda
