Stuffed Mushroom Casserole
Description
The recipe starts by sautéing finely chopped onions and garlic with sliced button or cremini mushrooms in butter until golden and tender. These cooked vegetables are transferred to a baking dish, then layered with shredded mozzarella and grated parmesan cheese. Half the breadcrumb mixture—made by coating Italian-seasoned breadcrumbs in melted butter—is stirred into the mushroom mixture, with the remainder sprinkled on top for a crunchy topping.
Baking at 350°F for 10-15 minutes melts the cheeses and crisps the breadcrumbs, forming a casserole with moist mushroom filling and a golden, flavorful crust. Fresh parsley garnish adds a bright finish.
This casserole works well served hot as a side dish with meats or vegetarian mains. The note suggests it pairs deliciously with stroganoff and may be enriched by swirling in a spoonful of light sour cream before serving to add creaminess.

- TIP: If you're using a cast iron skillet you can actually bake everything right in the skillet!
