Stuffed Mushroom Casserole
This Stuffed Mushroom Casserole layers sautéed onions, garlic, and sliced mushrooms with mozzarella and parmesan cheeses, blended with Italian-seasoned breadcrumbs. Butter is incorporated into the breadcrumbs to create a rich topping that bakes to golden and bubbly perfection. The dish offers a tender, flavorful mushroom base with a crisp, cheesy crust, suitable as a savory side or appetizer alongside a main course.
Ingredients
- 16 oz mushroom button or cremini, sliced
- 5 TBSP butter divided, unsalted
- 1 cup onion finely chopped
- 6 cloves garlic approx. 2 TBSP, smashed and minced
- ¾ cup mozzarella cheese grated
- ¼ cup Parmesan Cheese grated
- ¾ cup Italian seasoned breadcrumbs
- salt to taste (I used a pinch of each
- black pepper to taste (I used a pinch of each
- parsley fresh, to garnish
Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Clean and slice mushrooms (or use pre-sliced for a speedy shortcut!)
- Bring a pan or skillet to medium-high heat with 1 TBSP of butter and sauté onion until translucent, then add garlic and mushrooms and cook until golden and tender, adding a little extra of butter (as needed) if the veggies start to stick.
- Transfer veggies to a baking dish and sprinkle with cheese. Use as much or as little as you'd like here.
- TIP: If you're using a cast iron skillet you can actually bake everything right in the skillet!
- Melt 4 TBSP butter and combine with seasoned breadcrumbs. Mix well to coat.
- Add about half the breadcrumbs to the mushrooms and stir slightly. Then top with the remainder.
- Bake at 350 degrees F for 10-15 minutes or until golden and bubbly
- Serve piping hot with your favorite main dish!
Notes
- A spoonful of light sour cream stirred in before serving adds creaminess and complements the flavors.
- This casserole pairs well as a side dish with stroganoff or other main meals.
