They are perfectly stuffed with sausage, mascarpone cheese, panko bread crumbs and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mushrooms &#8211; people generally love them or hate them.  I don&#8217;t think there&#8217;s a lot of in between with them.  The earthy flavor and also just the texture just isn&#8217;t for everyone.  That being said, I love them and this is one of my favorite appetizers.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mushrooms are a good source of fiber, protein, and antioxidants, just in case you need an excuse to eat them. But, if you like them, I think you should try this delicious recipe.  They are always a hit when I serve them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You&#8217;ll need:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>About a pound of large white or bella mushrooms (You&#8217;ll have enough filling for about 15 mushrooms)<\/li><li>Olive oil (about 2 T)<\/li><li>2 T Marsala wine (can also use Sherry)<\/li><li>3\/4 pound breakfast or Italian sausage<\/li><li>8 oz Mascarpone cheese (I have substituted cream cheese and it works great too)<\/li><li>1 c Panko bread crumbs<\/li><li>6 Scallions (green onions), chopped<\/li><li>1\/3 c finely grated Parmesan cheese<\/li><li>2 garlic cloves, minced<\/li><li>salt and pepper<\/li><li>fresh or dried parsley (optional)<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>First, preheat your oven to 325.  Next, clean the mushrooms.  I do this by putting them in a colander and spray them with water.  Make sure to dry them with a paper towel after cleaning them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cut off the stems of the mushrooms and scrape them out so that you have a place to put the filling.  Save the stems and cut them into small pieces and set aside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Add olive oil to a skillet and cook the sausage, breaking it into very small pieces.  Drain fat.  Put the sausage back into the skillet  and add the chopped mushroom stems and cook on medium high for about 3 minutes.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now add the scallions, garlic and marsala and cook for another 2 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Turn the heat down to medium low and add the bread crumbs and mascarpone cheese.  Cook and stir until the cheese is all melted and incorporated.    Remove from heat and stir in parmesan cheese, salt and pepper to taste, and parsley.  Make sure it is all thoroughly mixed.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Place the mushrooms in a baking dish and divide the filling evenly so that every one has lots of filling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bake for 45 minutes.
