Healthy Recipes Ingredients Healthy Mushroom Recipes Healthy Portobello Mushroom Recipes Baked Feta & Tomato Portobellos 5.0 (2) 2 Reviews These easy feta-and-tomato-stuffed portobellos make for a delicious side. Baking the mushrooms stem-side down first allows any excess liquid to release from the mushrooms so it won’t muddy the flavors of your dish. If you don’t have Calabrian chiles, substitute 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper depending on your spice preference.
