Eggs Baked in Portobello Mushrooms : Low Carb, Tasty and Nutritious

Eggs, are so nutritious and when baked in Portobello mushrooms make a fun weekend breakfast, a great lunch, and even a vegetarian dinner or supper when served with a salad. Choose large, firm Portobello mushrooms, that are not too flat (or the egg will spill) nor too deep (or the egg will take forever to cook).


Ingredients
Serves Two
4 large Portobello mushrooms, stem removed, wiped clean
Olive oil spray
½ teaspoon (kosher) salt, divided
½ teaspoon black pepper, divided
½ teaspoon garlic powder
4 large eggs
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
4 tablespoons chopped parsley for garnish

... did you know that Portobello mushrooms have a robust meaty texture making them good for roasting, baking and stuffing. They are great for barbecuing, too – just dot with butter, crushed garlic, herbs and seasoning and cook for a few minutes until the juices run, or slice thickly and sauté with onions and garlic, so many ways to enjoy them ...

This idea is a good one. I try to minimalise the number of plates and dishes to clean after cooking. This one will do.

What a great idea. I never thought of baking anything in a portobello mushroom, but it works, doesn't it? Hope you're having a wonderful weekend.

Jean,these mushrooms are ideal to fill with what we want, they are also perfect as a container and we save a dough with flour.
