There are hundreds of Bruschetta recipes but this one looks so yummy! With a touch of sweet & savory.
One of our favorite family recipes for appetizers puts a spin on this easy to do recipe by Giada De Lorentiis at Food Network. We just leave out the mint. An option that we have done is to add in a small amount of cooked Italian sausage without casings, drained to the mixture. They are seriously bite sized bits of heaven. There is even a video to show you how easy it is to prepare.
Stuffed Mushrooms:
- 1/2 cup Italian-style dried bread crumbs
- 1/2 cup grated Pecorino Romano
- 2 garlic cloves, peeled and minced
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh Italian parsley leaves
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh mint leaves (* we leave this out)
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
- 28 large (2 1/2-inch-diameter) white mushrooms, stemmed
Directions: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
Stir the bread crumbs, Pecorino Romano, garlic, parsley, mint, salt and pepper, to taste, and 2 tablespoons olive oil in a medium bowl to blend. Drizzle a heavy large baking sheet with about 1 tablespoon olive oil, to coat. Spoon the filling into the mushroom cavities and arrange on the baking sheet, cavity side up. Drizzle remaining oil over the filling in each mushroom. Bake until the mushrooms are tender and the filling is heated through and golden on top, about 25 minutes. Serve.
