I created this recipe after having them from a take-away pizza place. My husband loves mushrooms and got them as a side order with the pizza. I tried to recreate it and worked out what the ingredients were. It has been a good side dish to serve with salad for a light lunch or accompanying something more filling. Just to make life easier I use open cup flat mushrooms, but I have also made them using closed cup mushrooms. This takes some time to make but it is good to serve as a starter.

Method
1) Wash the mushrooms and remove the stalk
2) In a bowl mix together the bread crumbs, cheese, Tabasco and coriander or mixed herbs to create the stuffing.
