Stuffed Portobellos Breakfast

I love to stuff portobello mushrooms. Their shape and size are perfect for that and it’s just so much fun. Grab a portobello, clean it up, season it, stuff it and cook it. How easy is that? My favorite produce vendor at my local market had some beautiful portobellos the other day and I couldn’t resist getting a package of six. I made two into soup, two more I stuffed with ground beef but I didn’t know what to do with the last two. So yesterday morning I decided to experiment something new and this delicious and easy to make breakfast came up.

    Ben, thanks for stopping by my site! I LOVE Mexican food! I served a mission for my church a while back and got to eat authentic Mexican food every day. I'm excited to have found your blog and will certainly start following you. Porobellos are my favorite and I love to dress up breakfast, so we are going to be trying this soon. Thanks!

    What a terrific idea! Love eggs, love mushrooms, this will be a nice change from a mushroom omelet.

    So simple and fast to prepare in the morning… the perfect breakfast! I would sprinkle some bacon bit on top for a little flavour kick.

    Oh, wow…was just browsing through your recipes, and being a soft egg nut, fell head over heels with these! I made something similar in prosciutto 'cups', but I'm digging the 'shrooms much, much more!

    Excellent recipe! I was short on herbs, so I just used fresh basil (and added tomato). It was absolutely delicious! However, I also ended up with a lot of excess water. Maybe I’ll add more salt next time and make sure to let my mushrooms dry a little more thoroughly before throwing them in the oven! Thanks for sharing! :)

    I also had a problem with the excess fluid from the mushrooms, I think in my case this was because the mushrooms did not fully open yet. Next time I’ll try pre-baking them.

    Do you scrape out the gills of the portabella before adding the egg and cooking?
