Stuffed mushroom caps

I love cheese and mushroom so this is the perfect meal for me! I have used baby Bella mushrooms in this recipe but if you want this as an entree you can buy a larger portabella mushroom and that will serve as an entree. This recipe is easy to make and can serve as a vegetarian entree.



Ingredients 
1 package baby bella /white mushrooms 
Garlic minced - 4 to 5
Onion -1/2 chopped into small pieces 
Parmesan cheese shredded - 1/2 cup
Boursin cheese / cream cheese- 6 oz 
Salt 
Pepper 
Paprika - 1 tbsp
Bread crumbs ( I use panko)- 1 cup
butter- 2 tbsp
mozzarella cheese- cut into small cubes




Instructions:
  1. Preheat oven to 350 F
  2. Wash the mushrooms well until it is clean. Then blot off the water and dry them.

  3. Next remove the stems from the mushrooms and place them in a separate bowl.



  4. The mushrooms without the stems are set aside for now ( they will be stuffed later)
  5. Cut up the mushroom stems into small pieces
  6. Place a pan on medium heat and add butter and let it melt.
  7. Now add the chopped onions and sauté until translucent, then add garlic and sauté it as well, finally add the chopped mushroom stems and sauté for a few minutes.

  8. Add salt, pepper and paprika to the mixture and mix well.
  9. Take this mixture off the stove and place in a bowl and let it cool down for at least 15 minutes.

  10. Now add the shredded parmesan cheese, boursin cheese, breadcrumbs to the mixture in the bowl and mix it in really well. This makes the filling for the mushroom caps.





  11. Now take a baking sheet and place aluminum foil on it and spray with cooking spray so the mushrooms don't stick to it.
  12. Stuff the mushrooms with a small spoonful of the filling.

  13. Arrange the stuffed mushrooms on the baking sheet and place a small cube of mozzarella on top.

  14. Bake at 350 F for 20 minutes or until the cheese is melted.
  15. Mushroom caps are now ready to serve ( let it cool down before eating since the hot filling can burn your tongue!)
