I used 1 lb ground pork in place of the turkey sausage. I only had two portobello (portabella) mushrooms so I used the remainder of the super yummy mixture to fill regular white mushrooms. I also used four slices of dark toasted wheat bread instead of seasoned bread crumbs. Reduce the amount of cayenne in 1/2 if you have small children as it is very spicy combined with pepper. I topped mine with sour cream for my 8 year old son. Overall, it's a spicy, creamy, cheesy, meat mix filling inside mushroom caps. I highly recommend it and it would be a smash in white mushroom caps at a party.
