INGREDIENTS
1 (3 ounce) package nonfat cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup nonfat mayonnaise
3 tablespoons shaved Parmesan cheese
3 tablespoons finely chopped green onion
1 (6-1/2 ounce) jar marinated artichoke hearts, drained and finely chopped
12 ounces large white mushrooms, stems removed (about 32)
Olive oil cooking spray
1/4 cup dry bread crumbs
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt-free Mrs. Dash Seasoning Blend or salt-free seasoning
of choice
DIRECTIONS
Preheat a gas grill to medium-high or prepare a medium-hot
fire in a charcoal grill, with the rack placed 4 to 6 inches
above the heat. In a medium bowl, combine cream cheese,
mayonnaise, cheese, green onions, and artichoke hearts. Mix well.
Spray the rounded side of mushroom caps with cooking spray.
Spoon approximately 1 scant tablespoon cheese-artichoke
mixture into each mushroom cap. In a small bowl combine
bread crumbs, oil, and Mrs. Dash seasoning, mixing well.
Sprinkle equal amounts on top of each stuffed mushroom.
When you are ready to grill, place mushrooms in a 10-inch grill
basket or on a piece of foil, in a single layer, stuffed side up.
Place the basket or foil on the grill and cook for 8 to 10 minutes
or until mushrooms are tender and filling is thoroughly heated.
You can also bake in the oven at 350 F for 15 minutes or until done.
