New member
1 tbs Chives, fresh, minced
1 Tomato, small, seeded and chopped
2 slices bacon, crisply cooked and crumbled
2 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded
1 tsp Pepper
1 tsp Salt
1 tbs Olive oil
4 Portabella mushrooms
Cooking spray


Preheat oven to 450° F. Line a baking sheet with foil and spray lightly with cooking spray; set aside. Brush mushroom caps and edges with oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and place gill side up on baking sheet. Divide cheese among mushroom caps and bake 10 minutes or until cheese begins to melt and edges begin to brown. Remove from oven and sprinkle bacon, tomato and chives over mushrooms. You can add more cheese if you'd like. Return to oven and cook an additional 5 minutes, or until cheese is melted and mushrooms are hot.
 
Damn that sounds good and I love Portobello mushrooms. I usually just take the large ones with a little olive oil, salt pepper and put them on the grille but will try these stuffed.
 
Have you tried it with other cheeses? I was thinking it might be great with Mozzarella, Pecorino, Provolone, or Jack cheese and maybe Prosciutto Ham or pancetta in place of the bacon.

Change it up whatever way you want. lol We have used jack cheese and I've even put hot pepper cheese on mine, sprinkle some jalapeno slices on also.

The original recipe was to make them like potato skins, hence the name, so go for it.
 
I was just thinking outside the box a bit as the recipe you posted sounds to die for.
 
Made these tonight with a salad for dinner. I've included pics.
I made them on the grill instead of in the oven.
