Here’s a recipe to make them at home:

Garlic Parmesan Stuffed Mushrooms

Ingredients:

20 medium button or cremini mushrooms

2 tbsp olive oil (plus more for brushing)

3 cloves garlic, minced

½ cup breadcrumbs (Panko preferred for crunch)

½ cup cream cheese, softened

¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese (plus extra for topping)

¼ cup shredded mozzarella cheese

2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped

1 tsp dried Italian herbs (oregano, basil, thyme)

Salt & pepper to taste

Instructions:

Prep the Mushrooms

Clean mushrooms gently with a damp paper towel.

Remove the stems and finely chop them (don’t waste them – they add flavor!).

Cook the Filling

Heat olive oil in a skillet.

Sauté garlic and chopped mushroom stems until soft and fragrant.

Add breadcrumbs, parsley, and Italian herbs. Cook 1–2 minutes, then remove from heat.

Make the Cheese Mixture

In a bowl, mix cream cheese, Parmesan, mozzarella, and the sautéed mushroom mixture.

Season with salt and pepper.

Stuff the Mushrooms

Spoon filling into each mushroom cap generously.

Arrange them on a baking sheet or dish.

Sprinkle extra Parmesan on top.

Bake

Preheat oven to 190°C (375°F).

Bake for 18–20 minutes, until mushrooms are tender and tops are golden brown.

Serve

Garnish with fresh parsley.

Serve warm as an appetizer or side dish.
