Ingredients
  

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.   You can also make these on the grill!  
  • Prep the mushrooms by removing the stem and scooping out the gills with a spoon.  Wipe the mushroom off with a wet paper towel and allow to dry again.
  • Mix the olive oil and garlic.  Put the mushroom caps on a baking sheet and brush the caps with the olive oil and garlic mixture. 
  • Stuff the mushrooms with the tomatoes and fresh mozzarella.
  • Bake for 8-12 minutes or until cheese starts to melt.
  • Put the mushrooms caps on a plate.  Drizzle with balsamic glaze and top with fresh basil.  Serve immediately.

For Grilling:

  • Preheat your grill to high heat.
  • Place the prepared mushrooms in a grill basket sprayed with cooking spray.
  • Grill for 8-12 minutes or until the mushrooms are tender and the cheese is melted.
  • Remove from the grill and plate the mushrooms. Drizzle with balsamic glaze and serve.

Notes

Storage & Leftovers
Store any leftovers of the Caprese Stuffed Portobello Mushrooms in an airtight container in the fridge for up to five days.
 
Make Ahead
You can prepare the stuffed mushrooms up to two days ahead of time for meal prep or getting ready for a party.  Store them in an airtight container in the fridge until ready to bake.

 

Freezing
I do not recommend freezing the mushrooms because they will come out slimy.
