FABULOUS!! My husband took one bit and said "5 stars" and he's tough with ratings. I made this recipe because a previous reviewer stated it reminded them of fried mushrooms (which I love)! My husband has never had them and doesn't have them to compare to but felt this was fantastic! The flavor was great....my only complaint was the lack of olive oil measurements given in the recipe. I think I ended up putting in a lot more olive oil than needed (which detracts from the health/calorie factor) because I was fearful they wouldn't "moisten" up each time I stirred them. Precise measurements would be helpful to allow others to veer from them to their individual tastes. Other than that...true winner! I used garlic seasoned bread crumbs and added about 5 cloves of garlic. YUM!! Will DEFINITELY make this one again! Paired this tonight with #284601.

Had some mushrooms that I needed to use before they went bad & this recipe was perfect. I drizzled EVOO in between the layers so it wouldn't be too dry. Thanks MarieAlice! This one is a keeper.

I made this for Pick a chef, it was good. Next time I want to add a bit more garlic and maybe cubed butter in place of the oil. My daughter and I love mushrooms so we were happy with these. I also did use seasoned bread crumbs. THanks for posting!!

This turned out very well and I could eat it just as a main dish! I added some fresh chopped chives. Used about 2 tbls of oil and drizzled some within the layers. It went very well with a chicken dish recipe#89343. We are sure eating well thanks to your wonderful recipes!

Good recipe. A nice change to the traditional side dish. I like the idea of melting mozzerella on top, I'll do that next time.
