What You'll Need

  • 12 large mushrooms
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped red bell pepper
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped scallions
  • 1 tablespoon reduced-fat cream cheese
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh parsley
  • 2 tablespoons plain or seasoned bread crumbs
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper

What to Do

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Coat a baking sheet with cooking spray.
     
  2. Remove stems from mushrooms; chop stems finely. Place mushrooms caps on prepared baking sheet.
     
  3. Coat a medium skillet with cooking spray. Over medium heat, cook chopped mushroom stems, red bell pepper, and scallions 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in cream cheese, parsley, bread crumbs, garlic powder and black pepper and cook 1 to 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.
     
  4. Spoon mixture evenly into mushroom caps and spray tops with cooking spray.

I've tried the store made stuffed mushrooms, but they don't seem that fresh. I will try making my own from this recipe.
