I promise that if you make these stuffed mushrooms, you will flip for them. They are creamy in the middle and decadently crunchy on top, well-flavored with savory shards of Parmesan, garlic and Italian herbs.
This recipe includes a couple handy shortcuts — as long as you’re using wholesome foods, I think it is more than okay to simplify your cooking once in a while. My first convenience-minded move was to pulverize a slice of whole wheat sourdough bread for instant breadcrumbs. Secondly, I used a great product called Garlic Gold Nuggets, sent to me from Seven Oaks Ranch in Ventura, California. All of their products are organic and contain entirely natural and identifiable ingredients. The Italian Herb nuggets are fantastic, and when I added a tablespoon of them to these stuffed mushrooms, they added so much flavor that no other spices were required! Make up a batch of these to serve as appetizers, or eat a bunch of them for dinner with a salad on the side.
