Chef: Melladoree
Fabulous appetizer or afternoon treat!
Ingredients
12 whole button mushrooms
1 small onion, chopped
1/2 cup Diced tomatoes
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon minced garlic
6 ounce package cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon basil
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Remove stems from mushrooms caps, being careful not to break them. Scrape out brown gills from inside. Chop stems extremely fine, discarding tough end of stems.
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and chopped mushroom stems to the skillet. Cook till all the moisture has disappeared, taking care not to burn garlic. Set aside to cool.
Mix together cream cheese, onion, tomato, black pepper, basil and red pepper flakes. Mixture should be very thick. When cooled add the onion and mushroom stems.
Fill each mushroom cap with a generous amount of stuffing. Sprinkle cheese on top of each mushroom. Arrange the mushroom caps on prepared cookie sheet.
Bake for 20 minutes in the preheated oven, or until the mushrooms are piping hot and liquid starts to form under caps.
