WOW - I scaled this back for 2 large mushrooms and couldn't get all the filling in so served a little on the side, actually I think the filling would be nice as a side by itself or wrapped in flat bread. This made a great snack for the DM and I and any recipe that gets her to eat her vegetables is great in my book but when it is this good and packed with flavour even better still. Thank you Debbwl, made for Went to Market.
