These are very good! I used light chive & onion cream cheese and sharp cheddar on top. I did make a change to the baking method - instead of baking, filling, then broiling, I just filled, topped, and baked for 15 minutes at 350. The filling was piping hot and though the mushrooms still had a little "tooth" to them, I liked them that way. Thanks for sharing this great recipe!

We just made this, with about half the mushrooms (saving the rest of the "stuffing" for dip). We sauteed a tablespoon of minced onion with 1/2 of the minced mushroom caps, added 1/4 cup bread crumbs, 1/4 tsp. Old Bay, 1/4 package of Hidden Valley dip mix, and used Parmesan for the cheese. Like Nif suggested, we heated the mushrooms in the oven for about 10 minutes (they were BIG mushrooms) before stuffing. Once they were stuffed we put them in the oven at the same time as the brown and serve rolls. They came out lightly browned on top, truly excellent. What a great basic recipe!

This was so easy and I like that there are only 4 ingredients! I used low fat onion and chive spreadable cream cheese and low fat mozzarella to sprinkle on top. I like that you can use regular size mushrooms. They make a great finger food and stuffing mushrooms usually cost more. I would make this again - the only change would be to heat the mushrooms for a couple of minutes and then heat up the stuffing in them so that it's warmer. Very good! Made for Football Tag, Week 4. Thanks alligirl! :)

Someone special recently gifted me with membership ~ I don't know who, but know they are special :D! Thank you! It is much appreciated....
My parents owned a grocery store when I was growing up, so there's my love of FOOD! My friends all love to drink, so there's my profession! I stopped bartending 5 years ago, when my son was born, but still 'do' private parties. DH and I did a 'Supper Club' for a while, but life kept getting in the way!
I am a SAHM, to a rambunctious 5 y.o....I LOVE cooking and collect cookbooks and anything kitchen related! I'm kinda picky, but will just drop an ingredient or make a sub, so I can still try a recipe.
I'm looking forward to many years of enjoyment here, and hope to participate in some events soon!
Thanks to everyone for posting such great recipes, and if you review mine, just know that I appreciate the time and effort involved in the reviewing process!
