Earthy roasted mushrooms stuffed with a vibrant, crunchy blend of walnuts, sun-dried tomatoes, and fresh parsley. A simple, elegant appetizer that's naturally plant-forward and bursting with flavor.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and lightly grease a baking sheet with a mist of olive oil.
Clean the mushrooms with a damp cloth. Pop out the stems and mince them finely to use in the filling. Set the caps aside.
In a medium bowl, combine the minced mushroom stems, chopped walnuts, sun-dried tomatoes, garlic, parsley, parmesan, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Stir in 1 tablespoon of olive oil until well mixed.
Make sure the walnuts are chopped small so the filling stays inside the caps!
Brush the outside of each mushroom cap with the remaining olive oil and place them hollow-side up on the baking sheet. Scoop a generous tablespoon of filling into each cap, pressing down gently.
Roast in the center of the oven for 18-20 minutes until the mushrooms are tender and the walnut filling is golden brown and fragrant.
Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with a little extra fresh parsley if you're feeling fancy!
Letting them rest helps the juices settle so they aren't too messy to eat.
These are a total crowd-pleaser and so much healthier than deep-fried appetizers. If you can't find large mushrooms, smaller ones work too—just reduce the roasting time by a few minutes. The walnut and sun-dried tomato filling is packed with heart-healthy fats and savory umami!
