Lindsay's Stuffed Portabella Mushrooms

Submitted by Busy Lindsay

"Quick, easy and low fat. I serve this alone or over pasta. The filling has enough flavor that you don't need additional sauce. Any filling that doesn't fit in the mushroom caps can be added around the sides of the mushrooms and served over pasta too. Just a tip, use fresh parmensan for this recipe; if you don't want to grate it, thinly shaved parmesan will work too. Can easily double the recipe to serve more people."
