Ingredients

  • 30 large mushrooms about 24 ounces
  • 3 tablespoons butter melted
  • 1 pound bulk pork sausage
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
  • 1 garlic clove minced
  • 1 package 8 ounces cream cheese, cut into cubes
  • 1/4 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
  • 1/3 cup gluten-free bread crumbs I use Ian's Panko
  • 2 teaspoons dried basil
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley flakes
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400F. Grease a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray or line it with parchment paper.
  • Next, carefully remove the stems from the mushroom caps and clean the caps with dry paper towels. Carefully brush the dirt from the mushrooms.
  • Line the mushrooms hole-side up on the greased baking sheet.
  • Brush the mushroom caps with the melted butter, set aside.
  • In a large skillet, add the sausage, onion and garlic. Cook over medium heat, breaking up the sausage and cooking until no longer pink and the onion is tender, about 8-10 minutes.
  • Add cream cheese and Parmesan cheese; cook and stir until melted.
  • Remove from the heat and stir in bread crumbs, basil, parsley, pepper and salt.
  • Spoon sausage mixture into mushroom caps. Sprinkle with a little more parmesan cheese if desired.
  • Bake, uncovered, for 20 minutes or until mushrooms are tender.
  • Serve and enjoy!

Notes

RECIPE NOTES
  • Stuff mushrooms generously. The mushroom filling tends to shrink down as it bakes, so don’t be afraid to stuff your mushrooms generously.
  • Top with extra herbs. Once your mushrooms are done baking, consider adding extra fresh basil or parsley on top. This will give them a more professional look!
