The Culinary Adventures of Two Ex-Party Girls
Turned Domestic Divas

We are Wisconsin Born-and-Raised girls who love cheese, wine (and vodka), cooking, turning everyday items into cute stuff, our sassy dog, our new city (holla San Diego) and being real people (we are currently in our sophomore year of real life, it's going great, thanks for asking.) Our favorite colors are navy and pink, our favorite food is chicken and avocados, and we speak Jersey Shore.

The Nanny (cooking) Diaries: stuffed 'shrooms

For the past week, I have been living with a 12 year old picky eater (nannying while her parents take her big sister to college in New York.) To be fair, this particular 12 year old has reason to be picky... a deathly allergy (no kidding, deathly) to ALL nuts, egg whites, bananas, and avocados. Every time I feed her, i'm slightly terrified that I'm accidentally going to do her in with a rogue peanut or sneaky almond. Despite her picky-ness (chicken, ketchup, sourdough bread and munster cheese was basically her diet before I came along) I did get her to try (and like!) mushrooms by making her these delicious stuffed 'shrooms. Super easy, super quick, can't mess them up!

Stuffed 'Shrooms a la Avery

8 large white mushrooms, washed and dried
1/4 cup minced onion
2 tablespoons parsley
1/4 cup breadcrumbs
1/4 cup shredded parm. cheese
Olive oil

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Remove stems from mushrooms. Chop up the stems, and mix with all other ingredients. Mix in 2 tablespoons olive oil, and a dash of salt and pepper.

Place empty mushroom caps onto baking dish. Fill mushroom caps to the max! push the stuffing down there to make sure they are full to the brim.

 Drizzle with olive oil before popping them into the oven for 10-12 minutes. Remove and enjoy!!!
The finished product... these were devoured 5 second later
