Shroom Bites (vegan/gf modification)

Lydia Menzies

Ingredients
  

  • 1 box of herbed Boursin cheese or Treeline vegan version. Or use the Miyokos vegan cream cheese and mix in fresh chives and other herbs as desired
  • 1-2 packs of fresh, organic white or baby Bella mushrooms can vary quantity depending on size of mushrooms and quantity desired
  • 1 small stem/handful of fresh chives or other green for garnish optional 1

Instructions
 

  • Set one oven rack high and one to the middle. Preheat oven to boil.
  • Carefully wash mushrooms to remove natural residues, then gently de-stem shrooms to create a little pocket.
  • Place on prep area with holes facing up and lightly stuff each pocket until full without breaking delicate outer edges.
  • Place filled mushrooms in a baking dish, and place on middle rack of oven for 5-8 minutes to start melting process. Check to be sure not browning too fast.
  • At 8 minutes, lightly sprinkle (if desired) the tops with some finely chopped chives for color and as a garnish (this is optional to make a bit "fancier").
  • For final step, use oven mitt to move baking pan up a tier to finish off and brown for 3-5 minutes minutes (depending on oven strength.) Cook times do vary based on ovens so watch carefully!
  • Remove carefully, plate and enjoy!
