Grab-and-go version for the store. Exact amounts are in the full ingredient list below.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup carrots, diced
  • 1/2 cup onion, finely chopped
  • 4 whole portabella mushrooms
  • 2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 cup shredded non-fat mozzarella cheese

Directions

  1. Sauté the carrot, onion, and mushroom stems until tender. Remove from the pan.
  2. Sauté the mushroom caps upside down (gill-side down) for five minutes.
  3. Meanwhile, mix the olive oil, vinegar, garlic, Italian seasoning, and pepper together.
  4. Turn the mushroom caps over. Divide the carrot and onion mixture equally among the caps, drizzle with the oil mixture, and cook for an additional 4 to 5 minutes, until tender.
  5. Sprinkle with non-fat cheese as desired.
AHF tip: Sauté the mushroom caps gill-side down first — it helps draw out extra moisture so the filling doesn't turn watery once you flip and stuff them.
