Zesty Stuffed Mushrooms

____________________________________

Ingredients

• 4 fresh mushrooms, button

• 1 1/2 tbsp feta cheese, reduced fat, crumbles (1/3 oz)

• 2 tsp chopped parsley

• 1/2 tsp extra virgin olive oil

• 1/8 tsp ground cayenne pepper, or to taste

Cooking Instructions

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Lightly spray a small baking dish with olive oil spray.

Remove the stems from the mushrooms by gently twisting the stem until it comes loose and pulls from the mushroom top.

Mince the stems and place in a small mixing bowl. Place the caps in a small mixing bowl stemmed-side up.

Add the cheese, parsley, oil and cayenne to the bowl. Mix well.

Spoon out the mixture evenly into the reserved mushroom caps. Divide the remaining mixture evenly between the caps, mounding the filling on each.

Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until tender. Let the mushrooms stand to cool slightly before serving.

Note:

These mushrooms are surprisingly tasty with low-fat feta cheese. If you aren't a fan of spicy food, you may want to a bit less cayenne pepper.
