Categories     Appetizer

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 11

18 ounces (510 g) cremini mushrooms*
14-ounce (397 g) package extra-firm tofu, drained but not pressed
1 clove garlic
2 teaspoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 1/2 tablespoons (37 ml) balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons (10 g) julienne-cut sun-dried tomatoes, dry not in oil
2.5-ounce (71 g) can of sliced black olives

Steps:

  • Rinse or brush off the mushroom caps and pull all of the stems out of them. Set aside on a baking sheet.
  • Puree the tofu, garlic, lemon juice, salt, Italian seasoning, onion powder and black pepper together in a food processor until completely smooth. Scoop the mixture into a piping bag or ziploc bag with a circle tip.
  • Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Carefully, pour just a couple of drops of balsamic vinegar into each mushroom cap.
  • Pipe the tofu ricotta mixture into each cap so that it creates a small mound. It will be a different amount depending on the size of your mushroom caps.
  • Finely chiffonade cut the sun-dried tomato pieces and start placing them on stuffed mushrooms. You can make them more vein-like by scrunching them a bit. Top with one slice of olive and press it down gently.
  • Bake the mushrooms for 10 to 15 mins. or until the caps begin to wrinkly slightly. You can serve these warm (which I prefer), or room temperature.
