Ingredients




1 pound large fresh white mushrooms - (abt 24) cleaned
2 tablespoons vegetable oil divided
4 ounces bulk Italian sausage
1/2 cup sliced green onions
2 garlic cloves pressed
1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese plus
2 tablespoons shredded mozzarella cheese divided
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese

Preparation

1 Heat oven to 400 degrees. Remove stems from mushrooms; finely chop enough stems to equal 1/2 cup and reserve (save remaining stems for another use). Place mushroom caps in a bowl and toss with 1 tablespoon oil. Arrange caps cavity side up on a shallow baking pan; set aside. 2 Heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add sausage, green onion, garlic, Italian seasoning and reserved chopped mushroom stems. Cook, stirring, breaking sausage into smaller pieces with a fork, for about 5 minutes, until cooked through. Remove from heat; add 1/2 cup mozzarella and the Parmesan cheese and stir just until cheese melts. 3 Stuff mushroom caps with sausage mixture; sprinkle with remaining 2 tablespoons mozzarella. Bake 10 to 15 minutes, until mushrooms are tender. 4 This recipe yields 24 servings. 5 Description: "These savory melt-in-your-mouth morsels are irresistible, especially for mushroom fans."
