Did He Eat It?

As scheduled, I made Stuffed Portabello Mushrooms last night. We’ve had them once before and DH (Disagreeable Husband) ate them “to be supportive”. Last night produced a much more pronounced grumble when he saw what was for dinner. “No Meat? I can’t eat dinner without Meat!”. Oh but you can.

I made plenty of sides so DH wouldn’t starve: Baked potatoes, Fresh Steamed Green Beans and Reduced Fat Crescent Rolls. It was delicious!

The stuffed Portabello recipe is so easy:

Ingredients:

• EVOO
• Portabello Mushroom caps (cleaned with a damp paper towel)
• Stovetop Whole Wheat Chicken Stuffing

Directions:

1. Heat the grill pan to medium heat. Slather the caps with EVOO – 1/2 tsp. per side.
2. Grill each side for 4 minutes or until soft.
3. Assemble the stuffing according to package directions (I use light butter instead of “real” butter. It saves half the calories and fat!)
4. Scoop 1/2c. of the stuffing mixture onto the grilled mushroom.
5. Bake at 350 degrees for 8 minutes.
6. Serve immediately.

Well, Did He Eat It? He did, BUT he was “starving” by 7pm. Lucky for him we had a meeting at church last night so he was able to snack away on bagels from Panera.
