To Make Pesto Stuffed Mushrooms

Wash and de-stem some portobello mushrooms, then place bottom side up on a plate and pat dry. Generously scoop some of the pesto sauce onto the mushrooms. Serve with sliced tomatoes, and eat like an open faced sandwich.

This would work well for mini portobello mushrooms, and it’s also worth a try with smaller mushrooms like crimini or button mushrooms. Make sure you add enough of the pesto stuffing to overpower the taste of mushrooms, especially if you or your family members are not big mushroom fans.
