8 mushrooms
1 clove garlic 
1 onion 
4 oz cream cheese 
1/4 cup parmesan cheese

Recipe Tips: 
Use well-shaped cap mushrooms, so you will get a good aspect for your appetizers. The filling can be diversified, it is up to what to use, from meat (bacon or sausages) to fresh vegetables(for example bell pepper, spinach, asparagus). The mozzarella cheese can be substituted with other cheeses you might like, like Gouda, Cedar or any kind of blue cheese. For a more crunchy taste, before baking, mushrooms can be seasoned with breadcrumbs. This Stuffed Mushrooms can be served with some topped fresh herbs. This healthy and delicious stuffed mushroom appetizer takes just minutes to be done. Once mushrooms are baked, they are soft with a juicy and creamy filling, yet with a crunchy topping. What more do you need on a cozy evening?

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Using a  damp paper towel, gently wipe the 8 mushrooms. Use a tablespoon or a small knife to remove the stem. Be careful not to break the mushroom caps. Layer hats in a casserole dish (oven-friendly) lined with parchment paper and drizzle a few drops of olive oil.


2. Heat a skillet over medium-low heat  with 2 tablespoons olive oil. Add a clove of minced garlic. Meanwhile, cut a medium onion into small  pieces and add  the garlic. Cut the stem of the mushroom. Add them to the cooked vegetables (the onions should be soft and  almost golden in color). Sprinkle a little salt and pepper. Let them  fry for about 5 minutes.


3. Place sautéed onions and mushrooms  in a bowl. Add to this mixture 4 oz (100 gr)  cream cheese and ½ cup  finely grated mozzarella. Mix and mash all ingredients with a fork  until everything is well combined. Add a tablespoon to each mushroom. Sprinkle some parmesan on top.


4. Preheat the oven to 375°F (175°C). Bake stuffed mushroom for 17 - 20 minutes (until the cheese filling melts).
