- 10 large baby portobello mushrooms
- 3 tbsp olive oil, divided
- 1/2 cup vegan Italian sausage, crumbled or chopped into small pieces
- 1/4 cup + 2 tbsp vegan cream cheese
- 1/4 cup grated vegan parmesan
- 1 tbsp garlic cloves, peeled and minced
- 1 tbsp fresh parsley, finely chopped

- Ground black pepper, to taste
For Serving
- Whole grain dijon mustard

Wash your mushrooms by rubbing them with a damp piece of paper towel. Remove the stems, chop them into small pieces, and set them aside. Place the mushroom caps in a bowl and set them aside as well.
Place a large saute pan over medium heat. Once hot, add two tablespoons of olive oil. Add the sausage to the pan. Once the sausage is roughly halfway cooked, add the chopped mushroom stems and season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Cook for a couple more minutes, just until the sausage is cooked and the mushroom stems have softened, occasionally stirring.
Place the sausage-mushroom mixture into a bowl with the cream cheese, parmesan, garlic, and parsley. Stir well, taste for seasoning, and season with salt and pepper as needed. *I didn't provide salt and pepper measurements because the amount will depend on the brand of sausage you use.
Drizzle the mushroom caps with about one tablespoon of olive oil, season with a pinch of salt and pepper, and toss to coat them evenly.
Divide the sausage cream cheese filling amongst the mushroom caps. The mushrooms should be packed tightly and overflow high with the filling.
If you'd like to roast these, place them on a parchment paper-lined sheet pan and bake them in a preheated 350-degree Fahrenheit oven on the middle rack for 20 minutes. If you'd like to air fry these, place them in your air fry at 350 degrees Fahrenheit and cook them for 20 minutes.
Top the mushrooms with grated vegan parmesan and freshly chopped parsley. Serve them with whole grain dijon mustard. Enjoy as an appetizer or as a side dish for dinner!
