I thought these were very good, and I would make them again without hesitation. I will admit to a small change; instead of using italian flavored breadcrumbs I made my own using a slice of pepperoni cheese bread I had made in the bread machine that I toasted on a low heat until dry and then put in the blender to make crumbs. I also used half parmesan, half finely shredded mozzarella cheese. However, next time (and I do plan there to be a next time) I also would add some other type of liquid (perhaps broth or wine); the stuffing was a bit dry. And I also found the stuffing not sufficient for 18 large mushrooms; I only had enough to stuff about 10 medium-sized ones. Bottom line though, this is an excellent basic recipe, one that would easily allow for your own special touches if you choose. You couldn't go wrong, and I'm glad I chose them to try.

These were very quick to put together, but I found the lemon taste a little overpowering. I think that some ricotta or cream cheese might help the stuffing bind together a little better without having so much lemon. Maybe a splash of wine or stock would work better.. Anyway these were a nice accompaniment to steak, but I would make some changes before making again.
