Healthy & Delicious: Clam-Stuffed Mushrooms Recipe

• 16 ounces large button mushrooms, stemmed
• 1 (6.5-ounce) can minced clams, undrained
• 6 tablespoons bread crumbs
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1/4 cup green bell pepper, diced small
• 1/2 small onion, diced small
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon dried parsley
• 1 tablespoon dried oregano
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• Freshly ground black pepper
• 3 to 4 tablespoons melted butter, as needed
• 1/2 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese

1. Preheat oven to 350u0b0F. Clean stemmed mushrooms and place open side down in a 9X13 glass baking dish. Bake 10-15 minutes. Remove from oven and soak up any liquid with paper towel.
2. While mushrooms are baking, drain clams, reserving packing water. Combine clams, bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, bell pepper, onion, garlic, parsley, oregano, pepper, and salt in a bowl. Mix to combine. Add desired butter and 2 tablespoons reserved clam juice. Stir until moistened. Add more butter or clam juice if needed.
3. Stuff mushrooms with clam mixture. Top each with a little mozzarella. Bake 30 minutes in middle of oven, until cheese is browned. Serve warm.
