My family raved. I used half shitake mushrooms and half button mushrooms -- and ground turkey. Utterly wonderful. I'll make this again and again.

We loved this recipe! Instead of placing mushrooms in the middle I put them on top, every thing else was the same. Thanks for a new way to kick up old hambugers!
