How about this recipe tip - make it veggie:

Cheesy baked mushrooms:

Heat oven to 180C/fan 160C/gas 4. 

Mix the mozzarella and cheddar with 1 tbsp. pesto, then spoon into the hollows of 4 Portobello mushrooms.

Place on a baking tray and roast for 15 mins or until the mushrooms are softened and the cheese is bubbling.
