Ingredients
- ½ cup Parmesan Cheese
- 6 lices Bacon fried and chopped
- 2 tablespoon fresh parsley chopped
- ¼ teaspoon salt or to taste
- ¼ teaspoon pepper or to taste
- 2 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 pound large cremini mushrooms cleaned, stems removed
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400℉.
- In a medium bowl add the Parmesan cheese, bacon, parsley and salt and pepper to taste. I usually don't add any salt because I find the Parmesan cheese and bacon provides enough saltiness, but I do add about ½ teaspoon of black pepper. Stir everything together and set aside.
- In a large oven safe skillet, add the olive oil and heat it over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and cook on both sides for about 2 or 3 minutes per side, just until the mushrooms start to brown a bit.
- Add about 1 tablespoon of the bacon/cheese mixture to each mushroom, you should have enough to fill all the mushrooms.
- Place the mushrooms in the oven and bake for 5 minutes or until the cheese has melted.

Notes
- Use large cremini mushrooms for the best results.
- Cook the bacon until crispy for a nice crunch in the filling.
- Be cautious with added salt; the bacon and Parmesan already provide plenty of seasoning.
- For a richer flavor, try swapping olive oil with butter when browning the mushrooms.
- Assemble the mushrooms ahead of time and bake just before serving for easy prep.
