Looking for a quick and easy recipe with fresh tomatoes? Look no further. These delicious Bacon Caprese Stuffed Portobello Mushrooms are the perfect weeknight dinner. Want to go meatless? Leave out the bacon and they are just as good!

Plus they are a great way to kick off the New Year. Like I said, cut down the bacon or go completely without.

They are so fresh, delicious and easy to make.

And you can totally get creative with them. You can add what you want, take away what you don’t want and just generally make something new but make them often! SO fab! 

They are very filling as well, so you won’t be starving afterward.

They make a great snack, appetizer or even a main dish! 

So are you ready to hear more about these Bacon Caprese Stuffed Portobello Mushrooms? They really are super easy.

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!
