Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 16 whole Large white or cremini mushrooms
- 1 cup Cherry tomatoes
- 6 leaves Fresh basil leaves
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 2 teaspoons Balsamic vinegar
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Clean the mushrooms with a damp cloth or paper towel. Gently remove the stems and set the mushroom caps aside. Finely chop the stems and reserve them for the filling.
Dice the cherry tomatoes into small pieces and place them in a mixing bowl.
Finely mince the garlic and fresh basil leaves, and add them to the bowl with the tomatoes.
Add the reserved chopped mushroom stems, balsamic vinegar, 2 tablespoons of olive oil, salt, and black pepper to the tomato mixture. Stir everything together until well combined.
Lightly brush each mushroom cap with the remaining olive oil and arrange them on a baking sheet, cavity side up.
Spoon the bruschetta mixture into each mushroom cap, filling them generously.
If desired, sprinkle a small amount of Parmesan cheese on top of each mushroom for an extra savory touch.
Bake the mushrooms in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender and the filling is heated through.
Remove the mushrooms from the oven and let them cool slightly. Serve warm as an appetizer or side dish, and enjoy!
