Mushrooms are one of my favorite foods and I have been wanting to try doing a stuffed mushroom dish for a while. I came across this recipe for creamy stuffed portabella mushrooms at a perfect time as I had some leftover chicken in my freezer that I wanted to use. This dish sounded really good with lots of butter, cream cheese and white wine though I did cut down on the butter a bit. The stuffed mushrooms were super easy to make and tasted great! I really enjoyed the mushroom flavour and the stuffing was nice and creamy and tasty. The golden brown bread crumb topping added a nice crispy contrast in texture. My cream sauce was nice and thick and clean and easy to eat but I think that I would have liked it to be a bit messier and spill out a bit more. I felt that the dish needed a bit of green and added some green onions as I had them on hand. I look forward to further experimentation with stuffed mushrooms.

1 tablespoon butter
4 ounces cream cheese
1/3 cup white wine
