Stuffed Mushrooms

This recipe is so simple but so, so tasty! It makes a wonderful appetizer or even meal (if you're like me and are totally obsessed with mushrooms!). 

• 8 oz whole mushrooms, stems removed
• 1 T fresh parsley, finely chopped
• 2 T onion, finely chopped
• 1 t fresh minced garlic
• pinch of salt
• 1-2 T vegan butter (Earth Balance; or you could use your preferred oil)
• optional: cheese of choice

1.  Finely chop the mushroom stems.
2. Melt butter over medium heat in small saucepan.
3. Combine the chopped stems, onions, parsley, salt, and garlic with butter and sauté for five to ten minutes, until mixture is well cooked.
4. Spoon mixture into mushrooms. Place on baking sheet.
5. Bake mushrooms for 15 to 20 minutes at 350. (If you choose to add cheese, add it at the 15 minute mark and remove mushrooms after five minutes.)
