Throwing a festive soirée this season? Get inspiration from our collection of recipes for Christmas and New Year parties. Who doesn’t love a delicious roasted in the oven mushroom stuffed with cheesy filling ? To me they are a must at every holiday party. Usually I like to serve stuffed mushrooms as mini bites. But you can also serve large stuffed portobello mushrooms as a beautiful starter to your holiday meal. They are easy to make and always look so impressive! These little bites will be welcome at any party this holiday season. Flavourful chestnut mushrooms stuffed with creamy savoury filling and sprinkled with crunchy pine nuts. Mushrooms are sponges and soak up water very quickly! To avoid soggy, watery mushrooms, brush them with paper towel to remove any bits of dirt instead of washing them.
Clean the mushrooms and remove the stems. Mix cream cheese, chopped prosciutto slices, grated parmesan cheese, pine nuts and chopped flat leaf parsley in a small bowl. Fill the mushrooms with the mixture. Then sprinkle with additional grated parmesan cheese and bake
Feel free to improvise with the filling. You can easily replace chopped prosciutto with crab or chopped shrimp. You can also use any sharp cheese you like instead of Parmesan. Aged cheddar or gruyere will be excellent in the filling. I’ve also tested this recipe using low fat cream cheese to cut on calories and it works just as well!
