The ingredients I use are the ingredients I always seem to have on hand, so they aren’t a difficult dinner and don’t require a lot.
Basically I just preheat the oven to 375, brush my portobellos with some olive oil, make some bacon up, stuff all of the ingredients into the portobellos, sprinkle with a little sea salt and pepper and bake for about 30-45 minutes or until cheese is melted and bubbly.
We like to drizzle ours with a little balsamic vinegar before serving, but you do what you like.
We often use a flavored balsamic just to add a little additional flavor and it pairs so well with all the vegetables, the cheese…. just so yummy!

Love using portabellas when I go meatless. Your photos are wonderful. I can almost taste those beauties.

Stuffed portobello mushrooms are one of my favorite ‘comfort’ meals. I love that you added bacon and balsamic. I bet this is a flavor masterpiece!
Oh it was SO flavorful! Which sometimes doesn’t happen with stuffed mushrooms. We adore stuffed mushrooms too and I can totally see how they are the perfect ‘comfort food’!
What a delightful meal with tomatoes. I must try making this soon. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much Betty, hope you enjoy it!
I love how these have bacon (the best food in the whole world!), but I also love how you can omit it for a Meatless Monday meal!
We’ve done both and while the bacon definitely adds an element of flavor that makes them amazing, they are JUST as fantastic without! Thanks!!
This looks sooo good! All of my favorites in one bite!
These look so good! It’s like a pizza with bacon in a mushroom instead of on crust.
The photos look great and I love the sound of these too. Yum!
