Mushrooms are delicious in and out of itself. But have you had STUFFED mushrooms that are filled with your favorite gems? I personally love tuna a lot so first thing I thought of was stuffing tuna in these mini treasure chests. Don’t let the photo fool you in thinking it’ll take lots of time to make; this is again an easy recipe that will leave everyone coming back for more!

Yield: 12

Ingredients:

• 12 Cremini/Button Mushrooms
• 1 canned tuna (133g drained weight)
• 1 celery stick
• 1/2 cooking onion
• 1/3 cup mayonnaise
• 1 tsp yellow mustard
• 2 tsp sugar
• 1 tsp freshly squeezed lemon juice
• 1/4 cup parmesan cheese
• salt + pepper

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350F.
2. Remove mushroom stems by popping it out with your thumb. Wash mushrooms to remove any dirt. Dry them with paper towel and place them on a baking tray (no need to grease!)
3. Sprinkle mushrooms with salt and pepper.
4. To make the stuffing: in a medium-sized bowl, mix mayonnaise, mustard, sugar, lemon juice and salt + pepper.
5. Add in canned tuna and using a fork, press down on it to make a mushy texture while incorporating it into the mayo mixture.
6. Stir in celery and onion.
7. Spoon and stuff tuna mixture into mushroom pockets.
8. Top mushrooms with parmesan cheese.
9. Bake for 10 mins until cheese is melted and water starts coming out from the mushrooms.
10. Serve and enjoy!
