Ingredients
  

For the Filling
  • 1 cup Panko Breadcrumbs Adds crispy texture; substitute with traditional bread crumbs for a similar effect.
  • 1/2 cup Pecorino Cheese Brings savory, rich flavor; feel free to replace with Parmesan cheese if desired.
  • 1/4 cup Parsley Fresh herb for brightness; can substitute with fresh thyme or rosemary, adjusting quantity.
  • 1/2 cup Sun-Dried Tomatoes Provides sweetness and umami; use fresh tomatoes in summer or omit if unavailable.
  • 1/4 cup Pine Nuts Contributes crunch and rich flavor; walnuts or chopped pecans can serve as alternatives.
  • 2 cloves Garlic Adds aromatic depth; use garlic powder in a pinch, but fresh is preferred.
  • 1 tsp Sea Salt Enhances overall flavors; adjust according to taste.
  • 1/2 tsp Black Pepper Adds mild heat; freshly ground black pepper is recommended for the best flavor.

  4. Generously spoon the filling into each mushroom cap and pack it well.
