Cheese and Bacon Stuffed Mushroom

Mushrooms are one of my favourite vegetables but I've never tried stuffing them before. I think this turned out rather well! I used Quorn lardons as they taste like bacon but are lower in calories.

Ingredients

1 portabello mushroom

1 clove of garlic

1 medium slice of onion

75g Boursin light cheese

100g Quorn lardons

Low fat cooking spray

1 tablespoon Parmesan cheese

Method

1. Finely chop the onion and garlic

2. Fry the Lardons, onion and garlic in a pan with the cooking spray for about 6 minutes or until the lardons are cooked.

3. Mix the cheese with the lardons, garlic and onion then stir until fully combined

4. Thoroughly wipe the outside of the mushroom and carefully remove the stalk.

5. Spoon the mixture onto the mushroom. It should be roughly level with the sides of the mushroom.

6. Place carefully on a greased baking sheet and cook in a preheated oven at 175 degrees for approximately 15 minutes.

7. Sprinkle the Parmesan over the top and serve with a green salad.

This made quite a substantial dinner for only 469 calories.

The flavours combined beautifully and I will definitely be cooking this again.

If you prefer then you could switch the lardons for chopped bacon rashers but remember to check the calories. Let me know if you try making this.

Speak to you soon
