I love experimenting with new vegetarian meals, and when mushrooms are involved you can’t go wrong!! SO much flavour.
I stuffed the mushrooms with sautéed mushroom stalks, garlic, onion, fresh parsley, breadcrumbs and parmesan, which created a perfectly crunchy and flavoursome top
Adaptations:
If you’re gluten free you could swap the breadcrumbs for gluten free breadcrumbs or use quinoa flakes. If you are dairy free or vegan you could swap the parmesan cheese for vegan cheese or nutritional yeast.
Easy option:
If you’re short on time swap the salad for a pre-made salad from the supermarket (like the Coles superfood vegetable mix), add some dressing and a tin of chickpeas
